Arilloom

Arilloom takes its inspiration from the natural world and the artistry of women weavers. The word aril, the textured, protective seed-covering found inside a pomegranate - a fruit that symbolizes life, natural beauty and growth. The word loom represents the time-honored, individually handcrafted technique used to make our products. Together, Arilloom weaves creation, sustenance, artistry, and tradition - all which work to cultivate and preserve communities at home and in the world. Arilloom products are designed in Brooklyn, and hand crafted by women artisan groups in northern Albania. Helping to preserve the tradition and cultural transmission of distinct weaving practices for future generations of women makers, as a source of creative and economic empowerment, is a vital part of Arilloom’s mission and values.
