Bambù: Traditional crafts from distant lands

Welcome! I'm Valentine, founder of Bambù, an online artisan shop.

Bambù is a brand that celebrates authenticity through unique creations crafted with traditional expertise from distant, often overlooked cultures, such as those of Colombia.

Set off on a journey and broaden your horizons!

As a passionate traveler, I've had the opportunity to visit many places steeped in beauty and tradition. Each country offers its own unique discoveries and experiences. Beyond simple tourism, travel is, for me, a way to expand one’s perspective, an opportunity to immerse oneself, even briefly, in a new culture.

LOOKBOOK

By becoming aware of all the wonders the world has to offer and by meeting talented local artisans, I felt inspired to share their work with you.

With products sourced from every corner of the globe, I want to invite you on a journey to countries you may not yet have had the chance to visit. Stroll through the colorful streets of Colombia with your fan, handcrafted right there. Carry your 100%eco-friendly raffia pouch and let it transport you to a typical Malagasy village.

GIFT IDEAS 🎁

The aim of Bambù Artisanat is to introduce you to a rich and eclectic craftsmanship, born from cultures that are not often placed in the spotlight, yet truly deserve to be.

DISCOVER

To promote and bring authentic crafts back in my suitcase!

This is how Bambù came to life in March 2022. Living in Italy and as the mother of a Franco-Italian boy, I chose to continue my adventures and share them with you.

To offer you original and authentic creations, Bambù seeks to collaborate directly with artisans I’ve met throughout my travels.

Our mission is twofold: to take you on a journey through these unique pieces, such as our elegant fans from Colombia and to showcase the skill, artistry, and dedication of the creators behind them.

Along the way, we’ve been fortunate to build relationships of trust with local communities. For instance, we work with Mexican artisans to craft our leather huarache sandals, and with Colombian artisans who grant us the exclusivity of their work.
Our workshop in Colombia handcrafts our espadrilles, following the purest Colombian traditions.

These men and women possess remarkable expertise, from weaving Wayuu mochila bags with a single thread to braiding natural fibers, skills I am truly proud to present to you.

New journeys await.

See you soon!
Valentine
