Elevate Your Look with the Alcalaa Wayuu Round Bag
The Alcalaa Wayuu Round Bag is a colorful and authentic piece of wearable art, handwoven by Indigenous Wayuu women in Colombia. With its bold design and cultural roots, this artisanal bag adds meaning and style to every outfit.
Alcalaa Wayuu Round Bag: Where Art Meets Tradition
Each Alcalaa Wayuu Round Bag is handwoven using the crochet technique and acrylic thread, which gives the bag a distinctive texture—soft to the touch yet highly durable. The circular shape, along with its intricate geometric patterns, reflects the Wayuu worldview and storytelling traditions. Every stitch has meaning, making each bag a wearable canvas of culture.
The bag’s bold and intense colors—combined with its fine stitching—create a piece that is visually striking and emotionally powerful. Whether you’re dressing casually or making a statement, this bag complements your style while supporting meaningful craftsmanship.

Despite its artisanal origin, the Alcalaa Wayuu Round Bag is made with practicality in mind. Its compact, lightweight form makes it an ideal choice for everyday wear, travel, or special occasions. The adjustable strap, ranging from 52 cm (20 inches) to 120 cm (48 inches), gives you the freedom to wear it over your shoulder or as a crossbody bag—depending on your outfit and comfort.
Dimensions:
- Diameter: 23 cm / 9 inches

The bag’s structure allows it to carry your essentials like a phone, wallet, keys, and small personal items, making it functional as well as beautiful.

How to Care for Your Alcalaa Wayuu Round Bag
