These traditional palm fiber mats originate from a fishing village in the swamplands of the Magdalena River. Local palm fronds are carefully sliced into strips, dyed using only natural pigments, and dried in the sun. A women’s cooperative then weaves these strips into designs—both traditional and modern—often reflecting their life on the water.
