Nanjing · Inspired by nature

A space for an encounter with nature in the city. Raffia textures, soft tones and a layered display of hats express the brand’s approach to craft.

From familiar silhouettes to seasonal pieces, discover the texture of the materials and the detail within every weave.

Chengdu · A journey into raffia

With natural raffia and handcraft as its starting point, the exhibition explores materials, inherited techniques and a more considered approach to making.

The hands behind the craft

Through Garry’s demonstration, weaving becomes more than a texture on a finished piece: it is a process to observe, understand and experience.

From preparing the material to shaping a hat, small and patient gestures reveal the human care behind the craft.

Drawn from nature, shaped by time and hands.

Closer to nature. Closer to the craft.
