ANITA
FERIA
Anita ‘Anet’
Feria is the pioneering person behind the famous Negros Occidental ceramic
industry for world market. She eventually innovated the mix of ceramics with
handloom pandan leaves which under the brand Anaware created an international
acceptance for exports to Europe, USA, Australia and Japan.
After three
decades, Mrs. Feria has passed on her skills in design and product development
on cermaics and pandan to her daughter, Mary Ann Colemenares of the Artisana
brand, thereby resolves the succession of the crafts to the next generation.
Indeed, Mrs.
Feria is honored for her contribution to our heritage arts and crafts as a
living legacy of women behind innovations.
