"At a shoppable atelier in São Brás de Alportel, artist-designer Maria João Gomes reimagines palm leaf craft into sculptural hats, bags, and home decor—pieces that can take weeks to make. Learned from her grandmother and pushed into avant-garde territory, the work spans oversized bags and unexpected hat silhouettes to architectural light fixtures that may be tricky to pack but make unforgettable mementos." - Chadner Navarro
An atelier worth visiting, amazing creations made by very talented designer Maria

Absolutamente louvável esta iniciativa de fazer chegar ao público em geral esta antiga arte da empreita algarvia.
Seria importante manter esta forma de artesanato para pelo menos a próxima geração.
Bem haja, Maria João!
