A Label with a Purpose

AESSAI is a London based lifestyle brand specialising in luxurious featherweight knits, ethically handcrafted in faraway places. Aessai derives from the phonetic spelling of essay and is inspired by a series of interwoven stories and journeys embracing the skills of South American artisans. Rebecca Kramer, the founder and creative director, was born in Argentina and dedicates chapters in the Aessai narrative that celebrate the craft and beauty of the communities that make them. She is delighted to curate and share the discoveries of her dedicated research among these skilled weavers known for producing beautiful luxury yarns, blankets, scarves and other handmade pieces. Two essential qualities characterise Aessai core products. The silky texture of the yarns achieved by hand spinning and an authentic natural palette of colours. The result is a rich collection of the highest quality sustainable products made from the finest natural fibres, a brand with absolute integrity.
