Wayuu Silk thread with Tagua strap
Wayuu Silk Thread pieces are meticulously handcrafted by the Wayuu women artisans of northern Colombia, a community renowned for preserving centuries-old weaving traditions.
Each item is created using fine silk thread, chosen for its soft texture, brilliant sheen, and ability to hold vibrant colors, allowing the artisans to craft intricate, detailed patterns.
The weaving process is highly skilled and labor-intensive.
Artisans work patiently, knot by knot, following techniques passed down through generations, ensuring that every pattern tells a story
- often reflecting elements of nature, family, and
Wayuu cultural symbolism.
