About Pampa:
Pampa is family run business based in Australia and Argentina with a worldwide reach and audience. Last year we celebrated our 10th year anniversary which was really proud achievement, along with obtaining B Corp certification at the same time. During the last decade we've been supporting and empowering skilled artisans in remote Argentina and beyond to produce rugs and homewares that we believe are woven works of art. Pampa has been connecting talented weavers with the global community since 2013. All Pampa products are 100% handmade embracing fairly traded practices through our artisan partnerships.
We believe your home is your sanctuary and that you should feel inspired within by adding meaningful handmade items. We offer handcrafted, high quality luxury home goods, made by our extended family of artisans.
In addition to providing fair wages and ethical ways of working with our artisans, we also take care of our environment. Pampa is proud to partner with environmental charity One Tree Planted on crucial reforestation projects around the world. For every Pampa order, a tree is planted. When you buy a rug, you're planting 5 trees, and for other Pampa pieces you're planting 1 tree.
Pampa has been featured in Architecture Digest, Goop, The Design Files, Sight Unseen, Design Milk, Yellow Trace, The Local Project amongst others.
