  Atzompa Collection
  Diamantes Pendant Light, Size D

  ADD TO PROJECT

  $3,635.00 – $3,735.00

  Our Atzompa Collection is created in the Oaxacan town of Santa María Atzompa, where the pottery-making tradition has roots tracing back to ancient Zapotec culture.

  Building on this tradition, we formed a partnership with master artisan Eligio Zarate, whose family has for generations worked to bring innovation to this centuries-old craft.

  Using a red clay that comes from local mountains, the pendant lights in this collection are first given form within custom gesso molds. Emerging from the molds, the repeating openwork designs—which play on motifs that are carved in to the stone at Mitla, the neighboring archeological ruins—are meticulously cut out one by one. Each piece is then treated with a finish before entering into a final kiln firing.

  Leadtime 8-10 weeks.

  Khovar Collection
  Fabric by-the-yard

  ADD TO PROJECT

  $150.00

  This collection takes its lead from the tribal villages of Hazaribagh in Northeastern India, where the walls of the villages’ mud homes are decorated with rambling, figurative murals. A canvas of dark charcoal earth is first laid down and left to dry, and then covered with a pale kaolin clay; before the top layer dries, women in the villages brush away the lighter earth with a broken comb or fingers to create lyrical silhouettes.

  The mural-painting is part of a matrimonial ritual for the women which takes place every spring during the marriage season. Fleeting in nature, each year the murals are washed away with the heavy monsoon rains – and then once again started anew.

  Drawn to the exaggerated scale and the boldness of the Khovar designs, we commissioned women in the villages to do three paintings for us (leaf, vine, flower) – which we have translated into a collection of fabrics and wallpapers.

  Our partners in this collection, the women from The Tribal Women Artists Cooperative (TWAC), receive a commission for each yard sold.

  Leadtime 2-3 weeks.
