Ancient design

Rug woven on a pedal loom with a very ancient Zapotec design, the meaning of which is unknown. To preserve it we have incorporated it into our handcrafted Mexican rugs collection.

All our rugs are made on pedal looms in our homes in Teotitlán del Valle, Oaxaca. Because of their resistance and thickness, our floor mats are ideal to be used in hallways, the living room, and bedrooms. Because of their patterns and beauty, our rugs can be also used as decorative elements on walls.

We make our own 100% natural dyes from plants, minerals and insects that we collect in the area. We weave rugs with a wide range of colors, combining dyed yarns with natural colored yarns (white, grey, black). We make rugs with a wide range of colors achieved combining or self-made natural dyes with wool’s natural colors black, gray, and ivory.
