Product Description:

Explore the enchanting and vibrant collection of Wuitusu's artisan bags, each a masterpiece crafted by the skilled hands of the Wayuu women. From their formative years, these women are steeped in the traditional art of crochet, a heritage skill nurtured during the sacred phase of puberty. This proficiency is so ingrained that they can seamlessly crochet while on the move, infusing each colorful, unique bag with tales of their heritage.

 

Rooted in the myth of a spider deity, these bags are more than mere accessories; they are vibrant chronicles of life and nature's wisdom, expressed through dynamic hues and clan emblems. Each bag, varying from 9 to 13 inches, not only showcases exquisite crochet craftsmanship but also serves as an ideal companion for everyday necessities, designed for comfort at your side.

When you select one of Wuitusu's unique and colorful handcrafted bags, you are endorsing fair trade practices that bolster the economic foundation of the Wayuu community. Wuitusu proudly upholds her affiliation with the Fair Trade LA organization and fervently supports the Wayuu Taya Foundation to safeguard the profound Wayuu culture. Each acquisition aids directly in enhancing the livelihoods of the Wayuu populace, with every $50 spent providing nourishment to five Wayuu children.

Delight in the spirit of the Wayuu with these handmade, artisanal creations from Wuitusu, each piece representing a perfect gift for her, capturing the essence of a vibrant cultural legacy.

So beautiful!!!

This bag is simply gorgeous!!! So well made. The color is so cool, great for the summer. One thing though, the strap needs to be longer. The strap is very short. I'd definitely, definitely, definitely pay more for a longer strap. Stunning work.
