BALEARIC ISLANDS

BALEARIC ISLANDS

We put at your disposal very exclusive design baskets manufactured with esparto grass, rush, willow, scotch broom, pine cones, European fan palm, chestnut… which we’ve been creating in our Workshops during more than 60 years, including our know-how and experience in every product.

Eivissa (28.09.2009) Until the late 1970s the islet of S’Espartar was the source of the fibre, and where Ibizans went to gather this plant at the end of the summer, to make espardenyes (esparto-soled sandals), ropes, senalles senallons (esparto grass baskets), slings and all kinds of everyday utensils. The Institute of Ibizan Studies has organised an esparto grass workshop to be held on 3rd and 10th October to teach people about this traditional task. The first part of the workshop consists of a boat trip to the islet of S’Espartar, and the second one will be devoted to the manufacture of esparto products and learning the technique for making llata, the plaited base used for working with this product.

White Goosefoot
White goosefoot (Chenopodium album L.) grows in the high altitude areas in Morocco and throughout Africa. An annual flowering plant that grows more than 1 meter tall, the young plants and its leaves are boiled and eaten as vegetables. Its seeds are dried and ground into flour for bread-making or boiled to make hot cereal. Other names include lamb's quarters and pigweed.

The egusi melon (Citrullus lanatus)

The egusi melon (Citrullus lanatus) belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family--the same family of all the melons, squashes and gourds. Egusi melon grows in Morocco and throughout west, central, east and South Africa. The fruit ranges from bitter to sweet in taste and the seeds are roasted and eaten as a snack, brewed as a coffee substitute, ground into a thickening powder or pressed for its oil. Egusi melon is also called West African watermelon, egusi watermelon and desert watermelon.

Crambe

An annual herb that grows more than 1 meter in height and produces many fine branches, Crambe (Crambe hispanica) naturally grows in Morocco, throughout the Mediterranean and the Middle East. Its main cultivation is for the harvesting of its seed oil used in industrial lubricants and products, as stated by Plant Resources of Tropical Africa (PROTA). The leaves are consumable, and its seeds have topical medicinal properties. Its other common names include colewort, Abyssinian mustard and Abyssinian kale.

Esparto Grass

Esparto grass (Macrochloa tenacissima) grows in Morocco and the Mediterranean area and its fibers are harvested to make paper, ropes and baskets.

Bay Laurel

This is the tree that yields the flavorful bay leaves used in culinary dishes. Native to Morocco and the Mediterranean, the aromatic evergreen Bay Laurel (Laurus nobilis) grows to a towering 40 feet tall.
