London Based South American Ethical Textiles

Based in London, ALLWINA was born to promote appreciation for and foster excellence in South American textile crafts. They are producing and curating art-like pieces at the service of the triple impact, driving economic growth, social equality and environmental sustainability, and facilitating access to its consumption in Europe.

 

The ALLWINA own label was born in 2020 by working with wool producers from a protected area in Argentine Patagonia and a group of talented women weavers.

 

ALLWINA aims to be a home for the celebration of crafts and people behind them.

 

 

100% Andean Native Sheep Wool

Utilising South American fibers in their collections, ALLWINA ensure all their items are made with high-standard materials offering high durability. The projects that compose Allwina source their wools from local family businesses ensuring local support and excellence. The wool used is selected under a strict criteria of being the best that can be found. 

Compositions vary from 100% pure wools to exquisite and unique blends such as Silk/Wool, which brings a sophisticated finishings and durability to the pieces.

ALLWINA’s signature rugs are made with fibres that come from the same region in which they are woven, even sometimes wool comes from the weavers’ own sheeps or neightbours that are local farmers, and is obtained under barter exchange, a system still used in those communities.
