Descriere:

Ana Martínez arrived at Granada’s Alpujarra to participate in a looms workshop, but she stayed there in Bubión. 27 years later she has her own textile workshop, Hilacar. Using two looms, which are more than 200 years old, she makes her ‘jarapas’, a type of fabric. Her products count on the Natural Park of Andalusia brand and the European Charter of Sustainable Tourism. Apart from Spanish clients, thanks to her online shop, her ‘jarapas’ arrive to many European cities.
