Casa Oaxaca was born from Lorena’s transformative journey to Mexico, where architecture, color, and local craftsmanship became a source of inspiration. The collection captures the essence of Oaxaca, reinterpreting its textile tradition through our artisanal and contemporary approach.
The design draws inspiration from the boldness of the women who work with the backstrap loom, an ancestral technique that defines the width of each piece. This natural limitation shapes the proportions of the collection’s rugs and textiles, adding authenticity.
All pieces in the collection are made with our Rugcycled® yarn, created from leftover textiles from our own production. Dyed in a natural beige tone, it gives a second life to materials and reflects our commitment to sustainability. This beige is combined with other colors that add personality and character to the collection.
The collection introduces new pieces for table styling, such as tablecloths and napkins, hand woven with the handloom technique and achieving a sophisticated and soft finish.
The handloom technique
The art of handloom is a slow creation process involving two artisans and a handloom, where each thread must be placed one by one without the use of electricity and then meticulously woven into the fabric or rug. These artisans are not just artisans; they are custodians of a centuriesold tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation. The handloom technique can take days, depending on the size of the piece. You hold a unique piece in your hands.
