Vigan, Ilocus Sur is a UNESCO world heritage site renowned for its Spanish-Filipino architecture and terracotta / red clay craftsmanship.
"Damili" is the Ilocano term for moulding. Over the years, it has become a family tradition to pass down the knowledge and artform to the younger generation and that is why today there is still a thriving community of damili producers in the region. 1572 is the year the Spanish colonizers first explored this region in the northern part of the Philippines.
Made in the Philippines.
