Did you just see this? The most wonderful persianas (blinds) ever to have graced the earth. I saw these in an interior design magazine several months ago and have since wondered where these exotic natural and handwoven blinds came from. Little did I know they are from Andalucia, Spain, more specifically from the town of Pilas, just outside Sevilla, Spain's 4th largest city. Luck must be on my side, as I have been looking for their origins online and everywhere else. I vow to visit Pilas one day. Sevilla, here I come (maybe sooner than later)!
Another fine example of Andalucian native craftmanship is the tolda, or awning. Look at how the grassmat has been intertwined into the wrought iron structure to make a graceful awning.Contact Information:
