Pagliarte

PAGLIARTE is a young association from the Locarnese region, dedicated to the processing of straw. The social aim is to unite ancient traditions with a modern and dynamic spirit – keep alive the tradition of the working of straw in the Onsernone Valley. Currently consists of numerous sympathizers and six women working in the handicraft production. The association is based in Berzona, in the Onsernone Valley, where a laboratory-shop has been created. There you will find many creations, such as: hats, both traditional and modern, of all colors, bags and belts, table mats and children's crowns.
