🧶 Artisan Craftsmanship & Meaning
Each bohemian straw hat requires ~8 hours of hand weaving and represents generations of matriarchal Wayuu tradition. The large pompoms aren't just decoration — they’re symbols of prosperity. And if you're into customizing? You can even add extra pompoms here to enhance or change the look.
💛 Fair Trade Impact
Wuitusu contributes $50 from every Ruth sale to the Wayuu Taya Foundation, providing food, education, and healthcare to five Wayuu children per purchase.
