THE SALTUS, IN A SMALLER KEY

The Saltus Small carries everything that defines its larger sister—traditional Solihiya craftsmanship, beautifully handwoven natural rattan, and timeless design—reimagined in a compact silhouette for lighter days and elegant evenings.

Sized to hold only what matters most, it is proof that thoughtful craftsmanship needs no excess. Refined, lightweight, and quietly distinctive, Saltus Small offers effortless luxury wherever the day leads.

NATURAL RATTAN, STRONG AND RENEWABLE

Every Saltus Small is handwoven from natural rattan, one of the world's most sustainable plant materials. This fast-growing climbing palm regenerates quickly, supporting forest ecosystems while providing remarkable strength with very little weight.

Finished without synthetic dyes, every warm honey-and-straw tone comes directly from the cane itself. The subtle colour variations are not imperfections—they are nature's signature.

THE SOLIHIYA WEAVE, REFINED IN MINIATURE

The iconic Solihiya lattice is one of the Philippines' most celebrated weaving traditions. Recreating this intricate openwork on a smaller silhouette demands exceptional precision, with every crossing carefully placed by hand.

The result is an elegant balance of lightness and structure—an airy geometric pattern that celebrates heritage craftsmanship while remaining unmistakably contemporary.

Each piece carries the quiet character that only the artisan's hands can create.

A FOUNDING PIECE TO TREASURE

As part of the inaugural COLĒRE Founding Collection, Saltus Small represents more than beautiful design.

Every purchase helps preserve the centuries-old Solihiya weaving tradition, supports artisan communities through fair partnerships, and celebrates a slower, more considered approach to luxury.

Created to be cherished for years, not seasons, it is a timeless companion made with care—for both people and the planet.
