Kaiw Update

Hi everyone, my apologies for the non-update of this blog. I had to deal with changes in my life first, before I could really focus on Kaiw. Cordillera Crafts. At the moment, this blog will remain, but Kaiw's activities will be reduced to minimum.

However, if you are still interested to know more about the products and skills of the Igorot people of the Philippines, please don't hesitate to contact me.

The Native House

Kaiw's Native House.

A cultural heritage of the Cordilleras, the Native House is a rarity in the face of modernization. The native house now becomes genuinely scaled down and designed to be part of your living and social spaces, exclusively from Kaiw. Cordillera Crafts

Add that cultural heritage and preserve it for future generations.

The Native House functions as a storage for jewelry, small valuables and/or other trinkets.

*The native house design is a true model of the Ifugao Native House. Note four posts that have a jagged-round attachment just below the floor of the house. It was designed that way to make it impossible for rats to enter the house, the jagged-round attachments blocks the path of the rats.The true native house is built without the use of nails and / or iron bolts.

Kaiw on Entrepreneur Magazine June 2010 issue

Kaiw is featured on Entrepreneur Magazine's June 2010 issue, now out in the market!

Here's some tidbits on page 64 of the magazine.

"The men and women of Ifugao are skilled woodcarvers, and Anos was attracted to their output. "It started as a hobby of collecting wood carvings that had form, function and a cultural facet. Then, my friends and colleagues started asking about it and soon they were buying it from me." Anos noticed that people were interested in the story of each piece."

Our much thanks to the Magazine's team, and to Mari-Ann Santos for the superb write-up! Thank you to our valued clients who continue to take home a part of Kaiw.
