Esencia

Yoko Meinertz and Erica Claure Pedersen founded Esencia in 2007. With contrasting backgrounds, japan and bolivia - the two shared an objective to produce high quality, natural products, simple in design whilst making use of the craftsmanship of indigenous artisans from the andes region. Esencia’s products are made from the finest natural alpaca, llama fibres and only cooperates with suppliers who value the principles of fair trade and sustainability. Esencia is a danish company which holds 3 different cultures; bolivia’s long-standing tradition of craftsmanship, japanese integrity of design and danish awareness of quality of life, resulting in a unique brand intended to inspire modern people aware of natural and simple living. Esencia’s ethos compliments the increased global awareness in high-quality, socially responsible and natural products.
