Almaï offers unique traditional pieces made by Colombian communities, from a very particular material: palm fibers.
Each piece has its own plant, the know-how attached to it, and the history of the families who have managed to preserve it.
La palma de Iraca in the Nariño region in the south-west of the country, bordering the Amazon, and its fine and delicate weaves. The caña flecha of the Cordoba region, on the Caribbean Sea side, and its precise and refined designs. The fique, resistant and flexible, of the regions of Antioquia, around Medellin, of Cauca around Cali and Cundinamarca around Bogotá.
From the extraction of the plant fiber, to the local and natural dyes, through the drying and weaving process, each step in the creation of Almaï products respect an ethical and sustainable process, transmitted by the craftsmen from generation to generation. A legacy that we want to continue.
