Description
Celebrate culture, craftsmanship, and vibrant design with this handcrafted Wayúu bag, a true work of wearable art from the indigenous Wayúu community of Colombia. Each bag is meticulously handwoven by Wayúu women using a traditional crochet technique passed down through generations.
Made from high-quality cotton threads, this bag features bold geometric patterns and symbolic designs inspired by nature and daily life. No two bags are alike—each one tells a unique story.
From material selection to the final stitch, this bag undergoes a detailed, multi-step process:
Thoughtfully designed by the artisan, often inspired by cultural tradition or personal expression
Crocheted by hand using vibrant cotton threads and intricate patterns
Finished with decorative touches like hand woven straps, tassels, or pom-poms
Washed and adjusted to ensure a flawless final product. Strap is 19" from the shoulder.
