History of Safi crafts<\/h2><\/div>\n[vc_column_text]The Safi Crafts brand was created in 1999, when a group of 14 women from the village began an embroidery and soil-dyeing project under the guidance of the Canadian\/American artist Jean Bradbury. Since the beginning, we have based our creations on locally available materials and taken inspiration from local heritage and everyday life, creating beautiful designs, colored with natural dyes.<\/p>\n

The early years of our inception saw us producing our unique textiles under challenging circumstances, often times gathering in a team member\u2019s kitchen, and later in the new association building. Despite initial difficulties in marketing our products, we continued to meet and create because we loved our work, and thanks to the support we received from local partners.
\nIn 2013, thanks to the support of UNESCO, Drosos Foundation and their partners, we began farming indigo. The project also included surveying the country, and specifically the local area, for natural dye plants to help produce the full colour palette we use today. The project also offered our team training in essential skills, including accounting, marketing, English language, sewing, and surface design.<\/p>\n

Using native plants to generate the dyes straight from earth, Safi Crafts produces unique contemporary designs. Each piece tells its own story, reflected by the personal hardships and ambitions of each of the women of Ghor El Safi.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
