WHAT MAKES OUR BLANKET-THROWS REALLY SPECIAL

When you buy an Anna Champeney blanket, you´re acquiring an unusual piece of individual and 100% natural textile design which has been featured in exhibitions and publications on contemporary design in Spain.

Each of the 3 designs is exclusive to Anna, has been designed and sampled on wooden handlooms at the textile studio in rural Spain and comes in different colourways.

Each design has then been meticulously woven and hand-finished at one of North Spain´s few remaining family mills.  The throws make wonderful and unusual gifts and come in a stylish monogrammed gift box.

TAKING PART IN OUR GIVEAWAY IS EASY

  1.  Subscribe to our e-newsletter (see top right or scroll down from our homepage to the sign-up box)
  2. If you´re already a subscriber, simply like, comment and share/re-post any of our posts on Facebook or Instagram between now and 16 December 2019.
  3. We´ll announce the winner of the giveaway at christmas, and post out one of our soft throw designs to the lucky winner early in January 2020.
  4. Or, if you´re in Barcelona, come to Festivalet and say hello to us on the Anna Champeney stand, and we´ll enter you in the giveaway and sign you up to our e-bulletin, on the stand itself.

El nuevo bolso Clutch de Anna Champeney. Tejido para ti en España.

Hicimos reuniones creativas en Anna Champeney,

aqui en las montañas del norte de España

Para diseñar algo nuevo, elegante

– con carácter y integridad

– con identidad propia

– y algo que dejaría limpios nuestras almas

(al no contaminar esta planeta)

Así que.

Buscamos lana local, lino natural sin blanquear.

Teñimos hilos de lana con tintes de la naturaleza.

Probamos ideas para diferentes tejidos, los adaptamos, los modificamos, realizamos muestras en un telar manual

y así nació la tela única para convertir en los bolsos Petaca.

Carmen, nuestra modista, acabó los bolsos, uno a uno, añadiendo una cremallera fuerte, metálica

Añadimos una cuerda hecha a mano, para harmonizar con el bolso.

Y ya está.

Cómo nació el bolso Clutch,

Y como lo elaboramos para ti.

Con carino.

(y mucha diversión)

Rustic style “Made To Order”

We love the timeless aesthetic of our large hand-woven sacks.  We use ours for storing our crusty bread from the local bakers and for storing recycled paper.  We have based our design closely on the traditional hand-woven flour sacks which disappeared with the last traditional weavers from our area in c. 1940s.
