EOI - Fundesarte

EOI - Fundesarte
Madrid, Spain

The history of this company began in 1854 in a small woollen workshop on the island of Mallorca. The following generations developed the business and introduced the ikat technique, an ancient technique that arrived in Mallorca via the Silk Road in the 16th century. Today, the fourth and fifth generations of this company, with 16 employees, work together, reinventing traditions without deviating from the original philosophy. This artisan family refuses to give in to the imperatives of consumerism. It has made curtains for the Royal Family and collaborated with companies such as Camper and Loewe. It won the 2017 Pimen Award for the company in the industrial sector and the 2016 Cadena Cope Popular Awards.
