Lou Dzeut - manufatti in canapa

Following the path of an ancient tradition, the "Lou Dzeut" Cooperative in Champorcher — now also present in Donnas — carries on the art of hand-weaving hemp fabric, creating and embroidering linens and handcrafted items that embody a rich history and solid heritage, synonymous with uniqueness and quality. The name "Lou Dzeut" is no coincidence: in the local patois, it means both "swarm," symbolizing collective work and collaboration, and "sprout," as a promise of future growth.

The manual labor on old-fashioned wooden looms, where the hands and feet of the weavers move arrhythmically, harks back to a bygone era. It’s a demanding and challenging task, but also captivating, where quality takes precedence over quantity. The weavers, along with the sewing master, embroiderers, and lacemakers, continue to produce hemp and linen fabrics, creating unique, personalized items for the home and linens.

In the atelier, high-quality pieces are crafted that honor tradition, yet evolve with a keen eye on contemporary needs. Custom-made shirts and vests can also be ordered, crafted from the fabric produced on-site.

Open from Tuesday to Sunday (closed on Mondays) from 9.00am to 12.00pm and 2.00pm to 5.00pm
