Uashmama is an Italian company based in Tuscany created by four sisters as an homage and dedication to their Mother. Pronounced 'wash mama' it is a project that links innovation with the old techniques from their Tuscan tradition, a story of family, passionate work and a touch of genius. The unique washable 'paper' that their products are created from feels like leather, washes like fabric and flattens for easy storage. With this paper they create not only aesthetically beautiful products, but items that combine function, tradition and innovation in one. As the 'paper' is made from a virgin fibre through cultivation and not through deforestation it is a sustainable and eco driven product where old and new come together in perfect harmony.
