DESCRIPTION
The word KANABO
means HEMP in Esperanto
(the ‘language of hope’
created in 1887). How
ancient, authentic and
precious this fabric is :
the very fi rst plants on our
planet, about ten thousand
years ago, to be spun into
a fiber. It demands work,
time, special tools and
skilled manual labour. The
hemp fabric – so beautiful,
beneficial and eco-friendly
– means past and future
that meet halfway in our
present time, where we
would all need a more
nature oriented life.
INSPIRATION
OR KANABO goes back
in our own personal
time as well. Back to
childhood, to warm and
deep feelings, f ragrant
cookies, juicy fruits, flowery
meadows, powdery dolls,
yummy ice-creams…
and loving embraces, of
course. This composition
is a concentration of
top quality natural raw
materials: Osmanthus
absolute, a delicate,
precious chinese flower,
fruity yet animalic; Vanille
absolute, the real vanilla
pod luxurious and leathery;
Fava tonka, almondy
but with a hint of blond
tobacco; Opoponax
balsamic, warm and
honeyed; Sichuan pepper
CO2 extract, a fake
pepper very fresh, citrusy,
spicy and powdery.
