Trapos & Fiapos

While in Fortaleza, we fell in love with a wonderful little shop that sells exquisite rugs and placemats woven with a combination of cotton threads and natural fibers (taboa and buriti). The rugs are made by women in the state of Piauφ. Here are some photos we took while shopping...For address info and other shopping in Cearß, please check Arts & Crafts in our Shopping Basket.
