Intricate weaving techniques have been used to create the Caribe Natural collection. The result is a particularly dense webbing made from the roots of the Bejuco plant, which wraps around the seat, back or table base. This vine-like plant grows in the Eje Cafetero, the coffee-growing region of Colombia, where people use it to make baskets to collect coffee beans. The plant’s roots are dried to separate the bark from the inner, softer fibres. The artisans weave these fibres then by hand around the steel frame. The shape of the furniture follows the popular Caribe and Caribe Chic pieces, while the beige hue of the natural wicker material gives it a more subtle touch perfect for indoor use.
