SU TROBASCIU

“Within every tapestry live the dreams of women..”

In Sardinia, weaving was never just craft. It was a woman’s voice, her rite of passage, her dowry, her dreams.
At Su Trobasciu, seven women carry this legacy forward, transforming ancestral threads into works of resilience and beauty. Every rug, tapestry, and woven piece is more than tradition preserved: it is the power of women creating, imagining and leaving their mark on the world

THREADS OF MEMORY
A living archive of feminine craft.

Founded in 1978, Su Trobasciu is more than a weaving collective: it is a living archive of Sardinia’s feminine creativity.

In Mogoro, weaving was once every girl’s passage into womanhood. At 14, she would begin with grain sacks, move on to linens and blankets, and eventually create her dowry — the woven treasures that would accompany her into married life. The most symbolic piece was the bisaccia, a ceremonial bag imagined for a future husband she had not yet met. Only after completing the dowry could she turn to the tapestry, a space of freedom and expression where, as Wilda recalls, “there are women’s dreams in the threads.”

Su Trobasciu was born to protect this heritage and give it new life.
Today, Cecilia, Wilda, Lucina, Rosalba, Pina, Rosanna, and Iosella continue the lineage, practicing ancestral techniques such as a bagas and pibiones to create arazzi, rugs, pillows, and home pieces. Each work is both memory and renewal AND a testament to resilience, beauty and the timeless power of women creating together.

Gathering stories around the table.
These woven strips, once part of family life in Mogoro, are created to accompany meals and conversations. They carry forward the ritual of togetherness, binding tradition with modern hospitality.
HANDWOVEN TAPESTRIES

Dreams made visible, threads turned into art.
Each tapestry carries the imagination of Sardinian women, once woven to brighten simple homes. Today they remain powerful statements of heritage and creativity, designed to bring beauty and meaning to your walls.
SARDINIAN RUGS

Grounded in tradition, made for living.
Durable and timeless, these rugs revisit the old Sardinian blankets, blending ancestral weaving techniques with patterns that connect past and present. Each one roots your space with warmth and authenticity.

“We almost invented this job and turned weaving into a business. And I believe women should return to this kind of work but together, not alone. Because working in a group doesn’t just grow your skills. It grows your courage. It strengthens your voice.”
