Famous Beauty
Skilled hands have perfected the Nicaraguan hammock using a centuries-old technique, including truly unique edgings of tassels and delicate-looking macramé. This gorgeous finishing touch is the true signature of this product. Traditional colors range from soft neutrals to deeply vivid hues. Indeed, they have quickly risen to the height of popularity due to uniquely beautiful styling and graceful craftsmanship. The people of Nicaragua have been sleeping in hammocks for centuries and they know what it takes to make high-quality products which are made to last.
Superior Craftsmanship
At the turn of the 19th century, most of the production in Nicaragua took place in Rivas and Masaya. They were constructed using natural agave or cabuya fibers. When cotton production spread in the 1950’s, these fibers were replaced with soft spun cotton, tightly twisted into cotton cord and hand woven. This dramatically enhanced the appearance and luxurious softness of this product. Each hammock gains added durability from reinforced hanging loops.
Unique Contouring Structure
The soft surface of a Nicaraguan hammock caresses every curve of your body, offering true Carribean comfort. The weavers use a double spring weaving technique resulting in a more compact width. They have a “springy” feel and a unique body contouring comfort. And as your beautiful hammock wraps itself around you, you’ll also enjoy luxurious softness because it is woven with heavier weaving strands than those used in other weaving techniques.
The level of refined quality and unique contoured comfort of this product won’t be matched by any other. When you run your hand along the lovely macramé edging and feel the soft embrace of this superior hammock, you’ll be happy you’ve made such a perfect choice. |
