MONTE WEAVERS:
In the remote region of El Monte, in northern Argentina, a community of talented artisans, many of whom are women, dedicate themselves to the ancient art of weaving. Their craft is not only a means of sustenance but also a source of pride and cultural preservation.
By creating handmade rugs through sustainable and organic processes, these artisans have gained independence and opportunities, improving their livelihoods and empowering themselves and their families.
At Andina, we deeply admire and support the exceptional work of these artisans, and we are honored to share their unique creations with the world.
