Authentic Hammock chair from Nicaragua 100% cotton
The “Rama” are an indigenous people who represent the smallest group in Nicaragua (approximately 1,600 people). Since Spanish colonization, they have declined sharply due to disease, conflict and loss of territory. But in recent years, the population has regained strength and is tending to increase. They descend from the interbreeding of several indigenous communities who occupied the Caribbean coast of Nicaragua at the time of Spanish colonization.

The “Rama” L hammock chair: The charm of gray and ecru

When decorating a house, colors play an essential role. The choice of gray and ecru for this hammock chair is significant. Gray evokes serenity and neutrality, while ecru recalls simplicity and nature. This combination creates a calming and elegant ambiance, perfect for relaxing.

Choice of materials: Wood and cotton

In addition to color, the choice of materials is crucial. Nicaraguan chair hammocks incorporate wood for the structure and cotton for the seat. Wood provides a natural and warm touch, while cotton provides a pleasant touch, a feeling of freshness in hot weather while remaining comfortable in all seasons. This combination of wood and cotton creates a subtle balance between traditional craftsmanship and modernity for inspiring decoration.

The people of Nicaragua and their attachment to crafts

When one enters a community of Nicaraguan weavers, the expertise and passion at work is immediately apparent. Creating hammock chairs is an art that requires patience and precision, but for these artisans, each piece represents much more than a simple object.

The tradition of weaving

Hammock chair weaving is an ancient tradition, passed down from generation to generation. Although the making of these hammocks in their current form is relatively recent (around 20 to 30 years), the weaving is rooted in the history of their community. This tradition is cherished, preserved, and passed on to future generations.

Commitment to sustainability

Nicaraguans have a simple philosophy of life, respecting nature. Their materials of choice are natural and sustainable, thus reducing their environmental impact. This commitment to sustainability is an integral part of their craft.

A window on the Caribbean

Offering or offering a handcrafted hammock chair from Nicaragua, with its colors, its materials and its tradition, amounts to integrating into your home an object of artisanal folklore of the Caribbean lifestyle. More than an object of relaxation and decoration, it is a symbol of all the cultural and artisanal wealth of the country and of these local communities.

Approach to time and space

The philosophy of slow life reminds us that it is sometimes essential not to rush our progress. Sitting in a hammock chair, time seems to stretch endlessly, offering us the opportunity to reflect and contemplate. It is the appreciation of the charm of the present moment rather than the relentless pursuit of the next.
