ABOUT AALUNA
At AALUNA, we celebrate indigenous Colombian craftsmanship by creating accessories that are handmade by Wayuu artisans.
Each piece is thoughtfully designed to honor their ancestral techniques while helping to preserve traditional weaving practices and support local communities.
Through every bag, we aim to promote ethical fashion rooted in culture, quality, and social impact.
Each year, we design ethically made collections that blend modern, urban style with the authenticity of artisan craftsmanship. Our commitment to fair trade practices ensures that every Wayuu artisan is treated with respect and paid fairly for their work.
A BRAND THAT CARES
In close collaboration with Wayuu artisans:
We collaborate closely with Wayuu artisans to honor their culture, understand their needs, and celebrate their exceptional craftsmanship.
Each bag is designed in France and handwoven in Colombia, blending ancestral techniques with a modern, chic aesthetic.
We develop every pattern in-house, shaping sizes and straps to ensure practicality and comfort—then bring each piece to life alongside our artisans, creating unique and meaningful handbags for the conscious and modern woman.
Our collections center around Wayuu handbags, traditionally known as mochilas. These distinctive pieces are recognized by their geometric patterns called Kanaas and the intricate weaving techniques passed down through generations of Wayuu artisans.
EXCEPTIONAL CRAFTMANSHIP
Handwoven Heritage
We partner with the most skilled Wayuu artisans to create high-end, handmade handbags that blend cultural heritage with our timeless and chic design.
Each mochila is meticulously woven using ancestral techniques passed down through generations. Our commitment to artisanal excellence means that every AALUNA handbag is 100% handmade—no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
In average, a Wayuu bag takes an average of 3 to 4 weeks to complete, reflecting the care, skill, and dedication behind every stitch.
When you carry an AALUNA bag, you celebrate tradition, craftsmanship, and conscious fashion.
HANDWOVEN BY SKILLED ARTISANS
We partner with skilled artisans renowned for their mastery of ancestral hand-weaving techniques.
Each piece is handwoven with precision and patience—an art form that demands exceptional skill and ensures lasting quality.
Then, we elevate every bag with refined, modern details, such as our signature 24-karat gold-plated hardware.
For everyday practicality, we’ve included a fully handwoven inner pouch designed to hold essentials like your phone, keys, and wallet.
