Founded in 2018, Artissanos was born from a deep reverence for heritage craftsmanship and a vision to preserve it through contemporary design. What began as a personal passion has grown into a purpose-driven brand—one that bridges timeless artisan skill with elevated living.
Each Artissanos hammock originates in the heart of Nicaragua, where weaving is more than a craft—it is a legacy. In a quiet town shaped by generations of tradition, our pieces are brought to life by fourth-generation artisans who continue the intricate techniques passed down through their families.
Every hammock undergoes several stages of meticulous handcrafting—from twisting natural cotton yarn to weaving, shaping, and final assembly. The process takes nearly a week, engaging multiple skilled hands, each adding depth and character to the finished piece.
More than decor, these hammocks carry meaning. With every purchase, you directly support an artisan community, sustaining not just livelihoods but an entire town whose cultural identity is woven into every thread.
At Artissanos®, we are committed to slow design, ethical practices, and lasting beauty. Our pieces are not created for the masses—they are thoughtfully crafted for the few, designed to grace homes that value intention, heritage, and quiet luxury.
We hope you find as much peace in your hammock as we found joy in creating it.
With love,
-- Mari Tefel
