ARTISAN HANDS
Our processes are committed to a social responsibility of respect for their culture, fair payment and care for the environment. Each piece is made by the hands of female artisans from the Los Altos Region of Chiapas using traditional pedal loom techniques, combining work with expert leather craftsmen, resulting in a high-quality, elegant and unique product made in Mexico.
OUR VALUES
As a brand we care about positioning Mexican design within the industry, which is why we constantly work to improve our production, always taking care of the quality of each of our designs. Our greatest pride is delivering you a timeless piece combining artisanal craftsmanship with modern luxury helping to preserve ancient traditional techniques by providing indigenous communities and individual artisans a new market for their unique craftsmanship.
INSPIRE
May that Arte a Mano woman who takes pre-Hispanic traditions to places we never imagined inspire us with confidence, beauty and femininity.
EMPOWERMENT OF CULTURE
Arte a Mano believes in the empowerment of indigenous people who keep ancestral traditions alive in Chiapas. We support artisan hands by preserving traditions that have been transmitted from generation to generation such as techniques from our origins such as the pedal loom, hand weaving and the use of ancestral textiles.
