Filipino weaves are at the heart of our ideas. We reimagine the use of local handwoven textiles and we try to lend a fresher treatment to it for the modern home. We currently work with a community in La Union to create and curate our products.  

We chose the name WVN ("wo-ven") because symbolically it looks like woven patterns of rice crops, mountains, or even water.  

The funds will go directly to financing the production of our double sided towels -- weave on the outside; terry cloth on the inside. It is 100% cotton so it is absorbent, soft, and good for the skin!

There is a tendency to underestimate the quality of our local craftsmanship because we do not understand the creative and technical process to produce this. We have come to know weaves as something “old”. WVN Home Textiles would like to change this mindset and raise awareness of the beauty of our local handloom industry through our products. 

Our advocacy is to rally people behind supporting local weaving and help communities grow their economic potential. We ultimately want to make weaving more relevant to the younger generations.

With the help of this crowdfunding campaign, we would like to launch our new line of summer towels. But more importantly, we hope that we can spread the word about WVN. Eventually, our goal is to be able to put direction to our creative output and innovate with the weaves.  

With your kind pledge to this cause, you will not only be supporting our products, but you yourself have become a catalyst of supporting local handicrafts. You will be receiving a masterfully handwoven towel, which you can use on your next trip to the beach, or to brighten up your home.
