Round esparto wood holder Almería

We don't know, but the truth is that our parents used it, and before that our grandparents used it, and before that... who knows. In fact, it seems like it has always been there. That is a characteristic of esparto grass, its durability, which together with its practicality and versatility make up an unbeatable trilogy, even unthinkable in such a simple and accessible raw material.
We know that esparto grass has been present in our society for more than 6000 years and that the way it is worked has always been artisanal and without major changes since the beginning of time.

If we exercise our memory a little, a multitude of esparto objects that we have lived with all our lives will come to mind: baskets, rugs, firewood racks, baskets, espadrilles, ropes, etc. It was only the appearance of plastic that made it fall into disuse, but its emergence in the world of decoration has allowed specialized craftsmen to find a well-deserved generational replacement.

With no two pieces alike and always irregular, its indisputable Mediterranean character gives a unique personality to this modest plant fibre that grows before our eyes in dry and arid places, forming part of our landscape and our own history.

Cleaning.
Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, a gentle jet of water or a damp cloth will suffice to clean it regularly, although any type of chemical product should be avoided.
