Services to link universal tradition to contemporary fashion
Through many years business communication,we have found a lot of sophisticated designs which are strongly reflected with its original culture.
The handicrafts inherited from age to age have not only helped people make their living,but also look very lovely by themselves.
However,these handicrafts are recently endangered due to their time consuming process and also their high cost.
We would like to deliver sensations to the market by inheriting the legacy of handicrafts
we are getting to miss in contemporary fashions,where people are likely to give priority to cost performance and trendiness.
Our passion to inherit tradition has set off the Renotra,which is a platform service to help linking traditional handicrafts to contemporary fashions.
In order to help inheriting traditional handicrafts, we are endowing some of our sales of Renotra products with some organizations(women weave) which are contributing a lot to uplift of hereditary handicrafts.
