For our Portugal Collection, we found it only natural to create an artisan-made “textile” with one of the most important symbols of Portuguese heritage: cork. From rockets to wine stoppers, cork has been cultivated in Portugal across centuries for its myriad uses and amazing, intrinsic properties. 100% natural and sustainably harvested with ancient techniques that do not harm the tree, we were inspired to get a little wild with our own innovative application of this exceptional, historic and sustainable material.
