"We have teamed up with Colombian master craftsman Edgar
Beltrán Jaramillo and the skilled team in his Bogota-based
workshop to bring this collection to life," says Aviva. "Edgar was
educated and worked for many years as an engineer, before he
made a switch and decided to follow his lifelong desire to work with
his hands. He attended Escuela de Artes y Oficios Santo Domingo,
a school started by two Colombian designers (Beatrice Dávila de
Santo Domingo and Poli Mallarino) as a passion project, with the
goal of preserving the country's artisanal heritage. It was there that
he studied and honed his craft of working with leather."
Involving 15 distinct steps in their production, the Saddle Lamps
reflect influences from the past combined with a contemporary eye,
while also mixing craftsmanship and design in perfect balance.
