Candy Colors

A Hand-Painted Legacy

At Lanart, Candy Colors is more than a name-it's a tribute, a process, and a philosophy of color. 

Each of our hand-painted fibers is dyed in-house with masterful attention to tone, shade, and vibrancy. This artisan technique has become a cornerstone of our Lanart collections, bringing life and originality to every product we create.

Our color process is a collaborative journey. While one dedicated team member oversees the actual dyeing-using large pots, artisan-specific dyes, and practiced technique-we all engage in ongoing conversations about color theory. We study, experiment, and refine together, exploring both the rules of color and the joy of breaking them. Our workshops include color maps in every studio to guide this evolving creative dialogue.

But there's a secret ingredient to our vibrant hues: the brilliant Arequipa sun. Truly-our team swears by it. The unique climate and sunlight of this high-altitude region in Peru allow our dyes to set with a depth and brightness that can't be replicated elsewhere.

The name Candy Colors is our heartfelt tribute to Candy Hoshen, a beloved mentor who visited our workshop years ago. She generously shared her expertise, igniting our passion for hand-painting and leaving a lasting impact on our team. This name is our way of honoring her artistry and the inspiration she gave us. 

Thanks to her-and the sun, the fiber, and the hands that shape it-your customers enjoy pieces that are not only beautiful but truly one-of-a-kind.
