Why it is different

What’s a mochila?

“Mochila” is Spanish for bag. A Wayuu mochila is hand-crocheted by an artisan in Colombia using skilled techniques shared through generations. Each piece is photographed separately, so the one you choose is the one that arrives.

About our tote bag mochilas

Each available piece is handwoven by a Wayuu artisan in La Guajira, Colombia. Every bag is photographed individually, so the bag you choose is the exact bag you receive.

Why every handmade piece is different

Colour, pattern and small variations are part of the handmade character of each one-of-a-kind bag. The maker is named on the product page whenever the assignment is documented.
