Large Arhuaca Mochila Bag

The Arhuaca people have a deep connection with Mother Nature, and their objective is to protect and educate about the importance of preserving life. As a result, all Mochila Bags are crafted from virgin wool yarn sourced from their locally raised sheep. These bags are meticulously crocheted by hand, without the use of any dyes, using a self-sustainable process that has been practiced for centuries. Each Mochila piece is unique and features a design that represents a moment in nature or life.

Purchase a one-of-a-kind woven art piece created by indigenous Arhuaca women. These bags are manual masterpieces that showcase a highly specialized ancestral technique. Weaving holds great significance in their worldview. By purchasing one of these bags, you not only acquire a distinctive work of art, but also support indigenous communities, their way of life, and their artistic expression.

Unique and unmatched, avoid settling for replicas.
