Fair Made

Oleana

The Silk Road continues to be a great source
of inspiration for us who work with textiles.
Over the last years we have been following the
Silk Road backwards.
This time we went all the way to China
looking for textiles, colours, cobalt blue
decoration on white porcelain, ornamentation,
and the architecture. We wanted to see if we
could grasp a little of the spirit in the country
that has been so important for the cultural
development in our part of the world.
It was a journey we will never forget.
Oleana’s designer Solveig Hisdal came home
with many ideas. Some of these ideas have
taken form in our new collection.

”Slow clothes”.
It takes time to design and produce an Oleana garment.
We have chosen to use traditional craftsmanship when
joining the different parts of each garment to ensure
a beautifully finished and long lasting garment. We place
emphasis on an ethically responsible production all made
in our factory in Espeland, near Bergen, on the west coast
of Norway.
“Fair made” is our new slogan in a time where we have
to be more conscious about what we are buying.
