About

Inspired by exceptional craftsmanship and unique patterns CASTELLANO enhance the techniques of some of the most highly skilled artisans in Colombia and celebrates the unknown tribes that are part of our history and ethnic origins. Each CASTELLANO product carries the essence of a traditional indigenous tribe which should not be forgotten. Each piece is made by hand and carries its own hidden story and its own message. Castellano transforms traditional ethnic creations into luxury fashion pieces and donates a portion of the proceeds to social programmes that seek to empower women and their local communities in Colombia. The Castellano Project support the Wayuu and Arhuaca people who preserve their weaving skills and cultural heritage which are internationally renowned for their quality, patterns and colours.
