Clean with a humid cloth. Store out of direct sunlight as this can cause fading to the natural dyes. 

FIQUE

The fique plant measures between two and seven meters; with long, narrow, pointed, green leaves. The fibre has gradually replaced the cotton that was previously used by the Guanes indigenous people. The growers - in charge of extracting, shredding, washing and drying the material -  deliver the fique to the artisans, who delicately prepare the fibre ready to be used. From combing, dyeing, spinning to weaving, artisans are so grateful for the use of this fibre that even the residues left by some processes are used to make new pieces, making this an environmentally sustainable trade.
