Saudade Design is a French-Portuguese handmade project. In the online store you will find pillows, utility mats, and yoga mats handwoven in Portugal, strictly from recycled materials.
Reviving materials at the end of their life cycles has always happened, long before we talked about upcycling. This was the basis of Portuguese weaving for centuries.
