100% Handcrafted | One-of-a-Kind | Fair Trade | Indigenous-Made

Handwoven by the Wayuu Indigenous women of La Guajira, Colombia, who proudly preserve their cultural traditions through weaving.
  

Every piece is a window into the hands and heart of its maker. Woven by hand, the patterns and colors shift from artisan to artisan, each one a living thread of their culture, land, memory, and daily life.

We collectively work with independent artisans and their families to bring you joyful, story-filled mochilas and accessories.

This Kanaas or design in Wayuunaiki is called Jime’Uyaa, which signifies “The eye of a fish”.

Chila Care

What we recommend: Spot-treat any stains with a bit of mild soap, a soft brush, and warm water. Rinse, and repeat if needed.

But you can: Machine wash. Turn the bag inside out, place tassels and strap inside, and wash on a quick, delicate cycle with cold water.

Do not use harsh detergents or bleach.

Do not tumble dry as it might ruin the tassels.

Air dry, hang to dry.
