Quiet Women - Each woman has her own quiet.
The Quiet Women are a limited collection of anonymous textile figures, each made by hand and each embodying a different way of being.
They are inspired by the quieter things in life: attention, patience, home, nature, making and the small rituals that often go unnoticed.
Each woman has her own character, colours and world.
The collection is growing slowly, one woman at a time.

The Quiet Women Collection
Each Quiet Woman is accompanied by textiles that belong to her world — woven pieces, colours and textures that extend her story beyond the figure itself.
The women will continue to appear as the collection grows.
