From the heart of San Antonino Castillo Velasco, Oaxaca comes this blouse that is more than just a garment; it is a work of art woven with soul and tradition. Crafted from linen, cotton, or manta, each silk thread adorns it tells a story of love and dedication. The skilled hands of our artisans have embodied in it the seven ancestral techniques passed down through generations: deshilado (thread-pulling), hand-drawing and embroidery, 'hazme si puedes,' foam weaving, spider weaving, and Castilla flower weaving. Each stitch is a reflection of Oaxaca’s rich cultural heritage, and when you wear it, you carry with you a piece of that history, filled with life and tradition

Technique: These Oaxacan artisanal techniques are a testament to skill and tradition. Deshilado creates delicate patterns by removing threads from the fabric; hand-drawing and embroidery bring unique designs to life; ""hazme si puedes"" challenges with three-dimensional patterns; foam weaving adds volume and texture; spider weaving forms intricate networks; and Castilla flower weaving evokes natural beauty with detailed floral motifs. Together, these techniques transform each garment into a true work of art.
