Home Products Hammocks South American

Centuries-old craftsmanship, modern comfort.

The world's first hammocks likely originated in South America, and were documented well by European visitors during the 15th and 16th centuries. These types of hammocks were originally designed as permanent beds, and because of this they remain among the most comfortable hammocks ever produced.

Usually handwoven from cotton, South American hammocks require a bit more care and maintenance than most. It's best to take them down when not in use, or at least during times when you expect not to be using the hammock for a while. Woven in brightly dyed rope in many colors, you'll be able to brighten up your backyard while making it a lot more comfortable, too!
