Kaiya 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. Each hat represents about 8 hours of dedicated craftsmanship, transforming natural materials into a unique, colorful piece of wearable art.
These striking hats offer an adjustable fit, making them the perfect gift for her. Style them in various ways — fully lowered for ample sun protection, front tipped down with the back raised for a casual vibe, or completely upright for a more formal look.
The decorative pompoms, a culturally significant accessory within the Wayuu community, are not just for show. Larger pompoms symbolize wealth and prosperity, infusing each hat with deeper cultural significance.
The hats feature a roughly 21-inch head opening, with customization options available for a tailored fit. (Contact us for size adjustments - Click Here). Your purchase directly supports the Wayuu community, with Wuitusu contributing $50 from each sale to help feed five Wayuu children, in collaboration with the Wayuu Taya Foundation.
