Valentina Handmade Wayuu Hat
Valentina Handmade Wayuu Hat
Discover the vibrant, handmade Wayuu Hat, a unique artisan treasure, expertly woven from high-quality Iraca palm fibers by gifted Wayuu artisans across Colombia and Venezuela. This design features a bold combination of deep blue, emerald green, earthy brown, and natural straw, all spiraling across the brim and shaping the crown with both geometric and traditional Wayuu patterns.
Each hat takes approximately 8 hours to complete, transforming natural materials into a stunning, colorful piece of wearable art. At the center, three large pompoms in vivid blue, forest green, and neutral beige-brown serve as more than decoration—they are symbolic expressions of cultural prosperity and handmade pride.
This bohemian straw hat offers a wide brim for sun protection and an adjustable fit for versatile styling. Whether worn fully lowered, tipped forward, or styled upright, it transitions seamlessly from beach days to brunch outings. A true Boho Chick hat, this piece blends meaningful craftsmanship with colorful charm—a bold expression of heritage and individuality.
The hats feature a roughly 21-inch head opening, with customization options available for a tailored fit. (Contact us for size adjustments - Click Here).
