The Valencia City Council has just awarded to the firm Vives y Marí the weaving of the official spur of the Fallera Mayor Infantil de Valencia 2017.

The espolín, the most precious fabric worn by the maximum representatives of the Valencian Festivities, which owes its name to the shuttle with which it is woven and that will work at least 650 hours to weave the meters needed for a costume, will bear the drawing "Fallera Mayor Infantil de Valencia", an exclusive property of the City Council of Valencia.
