ANDECUA
ABOUT OUR BLANKETS
The design, the colors and the special technique with which our unique ANDECUA blankets are made come from the Otavaleños, an indigenous community from the Andes of Ecuador. Surrounded by the three volcanoes Imbabura, Cotacachi and Mojanda , not far from the equator, our ceilings here are at an altitude of 2,500 meters above sea level. woven.
We work directly on site with a small family business that has mastered this craft for generations.
Every ANDECUA blanket that we ship from Hamburg comes from the best hands.
