Khovar Collection
Leaf Wallpaper, Charak Mati

$5.00

Priced per linear yard

Inspired by the Khovar murals of Hazaribagh, this collection reflects the region’s rich clay-based art traditions. In Khovar paintings, the clays hold symbolic meanings tied to spirituality, rituals, and nature.

In the local language, “mati” means clay, and Charak Mati is a soft, creamy white that symbolizes purity and light, reflecting the pale kaolin clay used in the murals.

Leadtime 5-6 weeks, printing is to order. Rush printing is available.

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

    Ventila Pendant
    Woven Rattan

    ADD TO PROJECT
    $2,250.00 – $2,950.00

    Ventila—our nickname for the Tagalog word for ‘fan’—is woven from Filipino rattan and takes inspiration from colonial era ceiling fans.

    It’s an interplay of textures, a mix of rustic and refined, meant to capture a relaxed grandeur. Strands of tropical palm are carefully intertwined, forming a pattern of organic contours that balances against the crisp, warm edges of our brushed brass fittings.

    Expert craftsmen create each piece, with its unique twists and turns, by hand in the Philippines from local, fully-renewable materials.

    Leadtime 6-8 weeks.

    Khovar Collection
    Pillow

    ADD TO PROJECT
    $310.00

    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.

    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 1-2 weeks.

    Atzompa Collection
    Ajedrez Pendant Light, Size A

    ADD TO PROJECT
    $1,775.00 – $1,875.00

    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.

    Barro Negro Collection
    Barro Negro Lamp

    ADD TO PROJECT
    $1,675.00

    The clay–known as barro negro–from which these table lamps are made is exclusive to the Sierra Madre mountains in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Local legend holds that the clay is blessed.

    The deep, inky color is the result of the unique properties of this indigenous clay combined with a firing process in which the smoke and heat—and deprivation of oxygen—creates an intense carbonization effect.

    Prior to being fired in an underground, wood-burning pit, the pieces are meticulously burnished with a curved quartz stone, marking the clay with a subtle sheen.

    Created in collaboration with maestro Amando Pedro, our long time friend and collaborator, in his workshop in San Bartolo Coyotepec, we drew inspiration for the shape from ancient cántaros, the traditional vessels used to transport and store mezcal.

    Leadtime 2-3 weeks.
