Description
The mochila coral represents the finest Wayuu craftsmanship. Wayuu artisans handcraft each bag using a premium two-thread technique that creates a strong yet delicate fabric. The strap, woven with one thread, provides flexibility and comfort without stretching over time. Finished with multicolored tassels, this mochila Wayuu combines elegance, tradition, and practicality. Moreover, it adapts perfectly to both casual and formal outfits.
Size and versatile design
This mochila coral offers both style and utility. On average, it measures:
-
Width: 12–13 inches
-
Length: 11–12 inches
-
Strap: 17–19 inches
-
Total length from the shoulder: 31 inches
-
Base diameter: 8–9 inches
Because artisans handcraft every bag, small variations naturally occur. These differences highlight authenticity and make each mochila Wayuu unique. In addition, the long strap allows you to wear it as a shoulder or crossbody bag, ensuring comfort all day long.
Durability and premium materials
Wayuu artisans weave the mochila coral with high-quality threads that combine lightness and strength. They intentionally use acrylic to ensure durability against sun, sand, and long journeys. Cotton threads add softness and flexibility. As a result, this mochila Wayuu is easy to wash, long-lasting, and practical for daily use.
Cultural heritage
It usually takes around twenty days to finish one mochila coral, since artisans weave patiently while maintaining traditional patterns. These designs, inspired by Wayuu cosmology, carry cultural meaning and make each bag a wearable story. For this reason, the mochila Wayuu is recognized worldwide as a product of designation of origin and celebrated as an authentic Colombian treasure.
