Description:
Wayuu (also Wayu, Wayúu, Guajiro, Wahiro) is a Native American ethnic group of the Guajira Peninsula in northern Colombia and northwest Venezuela. The Wayuu are known as the people of the sun, sand, and wind.
Organized in matrilineal clans, the Wayuu children carry their mother's last name making the Wayuu women not only the center of the family but cultural leaders as well. One of the most significant aspects of culture that the Wayuu women practice is the art of weaving Mochilas Wayuu bags.
Handmade is a brand dedicated to promoting the Wayuu crafts to the rest of the world.
