ELKANO DRESS

Description

THE STORY

“Primus circumdedisti me” you were the first to circumnavigate me. So reads the inscription on the coat of arms that Emperor Charles V gave to Juan Sebastian Elkano after completing the first circumnavigation of the Earth. In this way he recognized the feat of the Basque navigator, who arrived in Sanlúcar de Barrameda on September 6, 1522 aboard the ship Victoria, three years after setting sail, on August 10, 1519.

500 years later, from Amarenak we want to remember and pay tribute to this character and the rest of the Basque sailors of the sixteenth century, returning to our days and to our closets some of his clothes.

Fabric and care

• • Fabric composition: 100% cotton

Cotton is the most common plant-based fabric. This is due to its many properties. It is a very breathable fiber, and absorbs moisture and sweat. Cotton fabrics are also very soft, durable and pleasant to the touch.

Care: Machine wash at 30º with similar colors. En el primer lavado la prenda encogerá.

Traceability and Sustainability

The print has been created by Lëlë Prints (Leire Larretxea, San Sebastian), specialized in original and striking prints, full of flowers and birds and above all, with large doses of color. For this design she has been inspired by the flowers and botanical drawings of cloves, pepper, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg, the valuable spices collected by the Magellan-Elkano expedition in the Moluccas Islands, known as the Spice Islands.

This garment has been made with great care by tailors and seamstresses in Spain.
