Frasquita Earrings

Mutur Beltz advocates for the recovery of sustainable resources, and part of this project has an Andalusian heart. Hence the collaboration with @pica.uva, which aims to highlight an almost disappeared art, such as the elaboration of raisin grapes in the Axarquia region of Malaga; creating with our wool the collection of earrings ALMATXAR that remember and sustain tradition and respect for the roots.

Almatxar is Almáchar, a town in the Axarquia region of Malaga that gives its name to this collection; a collection full of unconditional love from soulmates.

This design is called Frasquita in honor of the maternal grandmother of @pica.uva; the root of cultural transmission and love for traditions.

General Details:

• The measurements of the piece are approximately 4x7cm.
• All pieces are original and manufactured in our workshop in Karrantza.
• Collection designed and created in collaboration with @pica.uva from Malaga.

Pica.uva arises from a personal transformation, without wanting to leave behind the experiences of childhood and with the staunch desire to value the cultural tradition of the Axarquia region of Malaga. Borrowing the name with which the locals of Almáchar designate visitors, that visit is exposed with the eyes of curiosity, wanting to show a piece of Malaga’s culture. With the use of Mutur Beltz’s Karranzana wool, the constant journey that Andalusia has made to the Basque Country and Catalonia in search of development and hope for towns subjected to poverty and depopulation is combined. Therefore, pica.uva intends to expose the laborious art of the pica of the native raisin of the Axarquia region of Malaga.

• The three colors of Mutur Beltz wool (white) are 100% natural and derived from a careful selection of the tones of our sheep’s fleece during the shearing process. 100% BASQUE WOOL
