One of a kind · Nº 116
Iwouya
Mochila Geométrica · Limón
Lemon yellow and magenta — and a band of blue and orange along the base.
€159
This piece exists exactly once — it's only reserved when you complete your order.
Dense angular figures in lemon yellow and magenta, cut by thin lines of green and orange — and towards the base, a band of petrol blue that grounds the whole drawing. The iwouya patterns are among the most demanding weaves out of La Guajira: a great deal of figure in very little ground. The braided strap and the tassels pick up every colour of the body once more. One of a kind: the run of colour never repeats exactly.
Fair & direct.
This piece was sourced in La Guajira through a direct partnership — with a commitment to fair pay. As soon as we can introduce the weavers with their consent, we'll share their stories here.
