ORIGIN AND MATTER The Revival of Indigenous Merino Wool.

High Craftsmanship demands an unwavering commitment not only to technique but also to the origin of the materials. In my search for a raw material that combines excellence, ethics, and memory, I have integrated the yarns of dLana into my atelier, a project that has successfully rescued the purity of 100% indigenous Spanish merino wool.

Behind every piece woven in the studio lies complete traceability. Working with this wool means directly supporting extensive and transhumant livestock farming, an ancestral practice that generates biodiversity, keeps our pastures alive, and respects the natural cycles of the animal. It is a conscious commitment to the rural world, the empowerment of female weavers and farmers (collaborating with networks like FADEMUR), and the preservation of our cultural heritage.

Choosing this material is also an act of resistance. It means supporting the regeneration of the wool industry in our country, ensuring that all transformation processes are carried out within the national territory, backing small family factories in provinces with a great textile tradition such as Béjar, Sabadell, or Burgos.

On a technical and sensory level, the properties of this merino wool are unmatched. Its fleece possesses a density, fineness, and resistance that surpass any other breed. For my work, this fiber becomes the perfect canvas: its softness and purity make it extraordinarily receptive to the natural dyes I apply in the atelier, allowing each botanical color to set with unique light and depth.
