Tanger pouche

Tensira has produced a textile collection from pillows and quilts to table linen exclusively for Isita, with cheerful colors and patterns.

The town of Tensira is known for the ancient art of indigo dyes, extracted from the leaves of the same plant, achieving vivid blue water and shadow patterns. These craft techniques inspired Hamidou of Guinean origin and his wife Tuulia of Finnish origin to create a textile house led by Guinean traditions.

The company is located near the capital of the Republic of Guinea, a place with a soul that exceeds the 5 senses surrounded by vegetation. The company already has more than 100 full-time employees, the majority of whom are women.

All the fabrics are made with traditional looms that are made up of more than 3000 hand-dyed threads. The fabrics are reused to get as little waste as possible. The house uses natural kapok fibers, obtained from the fruit of native trees for the filling.
