Designed by Claudia Q

This sweater draws inspiration from my grandfather and his favorite type of wood. Conacaste is a type of wood that is native to the tropical regions of the Americas and that is known for its durability and strength. The tree’s straight lines and honey-coloured wood, which darkens over time, mirror this cardigan’s timeless look. Dedicated to my grandfather Don Agustín, who loved Conacaste wood, the sweater is a tribute to the connection between nature and the places of my childhood. - Claudia Q
