Mate Claro
1/4

A full-aluminum-wrapped Palo Santo mate handcrafted by Daniel Omar Rodríguez in Buenos Aires. With 34 years of quiet craft to his name, Daniel works with sustainably sourced Palo Santo from Argentina’s Chaco region, fitting each gourd with a seamless aluminum exterior that strengthens the piece and creates its signature “claro” — clean, bright — appearance. Inside, the Palo Santo still delivers its gentle aroma and warmth, while the outer shell offers durability and a refined, modern profile.

The base and body are wrapped in aluminum and stamped with the maa·tay mark — a subtle detail that grounds the piece in its origin. An understated, elegant option for those who appreciate a lighter aesthetic and a resilient everyday mate.
