Mochila Rombos · Red

Red and raw white — a greca as old as the craft.

CHF 89€85

This piece exists exactly once — it's only reserved when you complete your order.

A greca — the meandering band — with diamonds in strong red on raw white. The most classic Wayuu image, in warm, earthen reds rather than a signal colour. A statement piece that still goes with plenty. A one-of-a-kind handwoven piece.

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.

How we measure

StrapHeightØ Diameter

Height is measured without strap or tassels. The strap length is the full band — the drop (shoulder to bag) is about half of that, here roughly 50 cm.

Typical for size Medium: Ø 15–18 cm, height 20–24 cm, strap 85–110 cm. Every mochila is made by hand, so an individual piece can sit a little outside these figures.

All measurements are approximate. As each mochila is handmade and one of a kind, its pattern, colours and exact dimensions may vary slightly from the photograph shown.

Care: Hand-wash cold, dry flat, do not wring.
