Iguaraya

  Wayuu mochilas are traditional crocheted cross-body bags made by Indigenous Wayúu artisans from La Guajira, Colombia. They embody ancestral culture and the local landscapes of La Guajira, as well as well as modern styles that are uniquely inspired. Their versatility, beautiful design and long-lasting material make them one of the best bags on the market! The Iguaraya mochila was one of our first designs made and remains of our most popular bags. The name Iguaraya comes from the rich red fruit of the cactus known for it's nutritional healing properties. Note: The small is woven with a single thread, a weaving style that allows for exquisite detail and also takes twice as long to weave, hence the comparable price to the larger sizes.
