O CASULO FELIZ

Organic Silk

 

Growing mulberry trees and raising silkworms are naturally organic processes. The caterpillar is very sensitive and any chemical in the process causes the premature death of the creation. Casulo Feliz, which means Happy Cocoon, emerged in 1988 inspired by artisanal craftsmanship, transforming its cocoons into precious treasures that do not meet the demands of large industries. Dyeing is carried out with natural pigments, a process that does not require water treatment. The silk threads production is a collaborative effort within the local community, small farmers, and entrepreneurs.
