The Project born with interior designer Itzel Zúñiga, that always searchs the preservation of ancestral crafts and cultural identities.
In her constant search for community projects with social impact, Itzel traveled to Brazil, where she taught children in the favelas, and later moved back to Oaxaca to work in a crafts workshop, which sparked her passion for all things textiles.
Nana Manos Artesanas means “lullaby of artisans’ hands” in Spanish, the project is heavily inspired by the sense of warmth and care we experience during childhood when tender hands of our mothers and grandmothers take care of us and lull us to sleep with a song.
The closeness to “Nahuatl Nantlalli”, Mother Earth, the Mother of Mothers, is reflected in the use of organic and natural materials, worked with ancestral techniques which have been passed down through generations of women.
Through her collections of textile and embroidered products, Nana Manos Artesanas brings us back to a place of comfort, thanks to the skillful blend of exclusive designs, pastel color palettes, and masterful working techniques.
