Trapos&Fiapos

We are a factory that has been hand-weaving cotton and natural fiber (Taboa, Buriti) unique, customizable and exclusive pieces on a net loom for 35 years. The plot of Trapos & Fiapos traces and unites lives. Founded in 1984, it tells the story of the transformation of the village of Santa Rita, in Piauí, northeast of Brazil, which discovered a form of rebirth in weaving. Trapos & Fiapos emerged from this social and cultural bias, with an innovative production concept when developing a unique tapestry. Focused on sustainability, it pays close attention to both those who make and those who receive it and today it is a reference in the handmade weaving segment.

Since 1984, handcrafting pieces with refinement and uniqueness.
 
We are passionate about doing it by hand, we study the spaces, the lines, the prints all to be made on the loom that we produce right here in the factory, with artisans who have been with us for generations and who are part of the history of our community, Santa Rita - Piauí - Brazil. We work with feeling, we seek to reframe materials and connect with man, nature, the world, energies, producing unique pieces, worked for hours by our hands to offer essence, truth, design. The pieces are highly durable, we have stories in our diaries about rugs that for over 20 years still convey beauty and usability. Our difference is that we work with natural TABOA fiber that we take from the lagoon and spin with cotton into unique designs and transform sustainable, socially responsible and lively pieces. We produce rugs, poufs, cushions, curtains, and bandanas that can be ordered via website or telephone, and reserved for the day you need. Get in touch, we are always available.
