The Crin Collection comes as an attempt to appreciate a traditional 200-year-old Chilean technique by which man creates a particular identity and manages to transcend through their work. This technique, which originated in Rari, a town located 300 km south of Santiago in the Andean foothills, consists of weaving horsehair. This project was conducted in conjunction with Marcela Sep������ºlveda, a crin expert artisan and a native of Rari. Through this collaboration we searched for a link and a mutual influence with the platform of contemporary art toys. The handmade collection consists of Carmelita, Altipl������¡nico, Aguayo and Poncho. Dimensions 150x80x80 mm
