Colombian textile studio that reinvents traditional techniques to create homeware, art & fashion pieces. We combine natural fibers with modern materials to create contemporary handmade textiles with an artisanal heritage.
Our story begins in the Colombian mountains in 1995 with Carlos Vera Dieppa, a pioneer in Latin American textile design who, with the help of a local coffee-sack weaver, develops a unique weaving technique where he intertwines local, organic threads to craft unusual fiber-rugs.
It is years later, however, when he decides to customize his own looms and add metal threads to these rugs, that his technique becomes a revolutionary legacy.
After “Charlie’s” passing in 2010, his son Tomás and his daughter Cristina decide to honor his life and legacy by bringing back his craft. Through a renovated brand concept, the siblings craft an idea that even today, speaks of Colombia and its heartwarming traditions.
They call this idea “VERDI” as an ode to their late father’s last names: Vera Dieppa
