Wayuu






The Wayuu Susu bag has become very fashionable in the United States and a great accessory for the socially conscious individual. These are made by Wayuu Tribeswomen, an indigenous people who live near the borders of both Colombia and Venezuela. Each bag takes 21 days for an individual to make one hand woven bucket bag. The proceeds had helped the indigenous women of Venezuela Improve their lives and safeguarding their culture.
Love the last one, can't wait to get mine!
