We are excited to offer Handmade in Colombia, Wayuu woven bags.
About Wayuu
For the matriarchal tribe, the tradition of crochet and weaving is a symbol of womanhood, status and intelligence.
Traditionally, women are taught to crochet during the “encierro” a sacred confinement which begins during their first menstruation and can last from months to years.
During this rite of passage into womanhood, a girl learns to care for the home, for her family and crochet.
The longer the confinement, the finer a girl’s weaving skills become, making her a highly valued woman in her community.
Wayuu bags are a cultural heritage
Fair Trade – Indigenous women are in the top percentile of the population most likely to live in extreme poverty. To ensure access to decent living standards these women are paid 25-30% above the average market price for these Wayuu bags.
