Latvian weaving

26 – 28 June, 2025

Studio Natural designer Laima Kaugure has made a lasting impact on Latvian textile design, and has gained international recognition, including in Japan.

Studio Natural’s motto is “Linen as a lifestyle.” Since 1995, the studio has showcased its hand-woven linen products at international exhibitions. The collection includes tablecloths, napkins, cushions, scarves, clothing, and linen products crafted for usage throughout the year.

Our uniqueness lies in our approach – our fabrics are woven using traditional Latvian weaving techniques on old looms, combined with innovative handcrafted methods, resulting in timeless designs.
