How can I help? Let's get the conversation going. No obligations.
"Una Raíz" means "One Root."
The name Una Raíz comes from a fuller sentiment that goes: de sólo una raíz, todo nace (“from only one root, all is born”). It alludes both to the complex beauty that makes up my culture and informs everything I do, as well as to the path that led me here, in all its winding and seemingly unrelated ways—a path that connects me to you, and you to every other being seeking a fulfilling life on this planet. Because to me, that is the true power of this craft: connection.
Let customers speak for us
The more that I look at this little bowl, the more I appreciate the subtle workmanship that went into its design. I have it sitting near an edge of my 40-year-old beautiful solid-wood octagonal dining room table. They complement each other so nicely that I may not put anything inside the bowl---ever! Why mess with perfection?
The perfect t accent piece, with or without a flower inside. I love it on my coffee table or dining table for special occasions with a sprouting bud inside.
Carlos' Bud Vases are actually one of my favorites from his beautiful creations! None of them are exactly the same, yet they are all equally incredible! I love plants and flowers so this was a must! They are beautiful, unique, and bring culture, light, & life wherever you put them in your home. I highly recommend them!
Lovely bowl, just as described and carefully packed. Highly recommend.
A word on my logo
My logo is based on the Taíno symbol for the coquí, a tree frog endemic to the island of Borikén, whose sweet song fills the night and to me represents the safety of childhood in my homeland. The name and logo together serve me as a reminder that I do this work, in the way I am called to do it, for my ancestors.
Did we miss each other?
