Palma Seje Weaving
In Ayapel, Córdoba, on the Colombian Caribbean, palma seje weaving is worked over iron frameworks, braided, interlaced and knotted until the surface carries a deep texture. Baskets, home accessories and decorative objects follow in three to five weeks, and the frame can be drawn to a silhouette a hotel or residential scheme needs.
