Wayuu Indigenous Circular Coin Purse

Discover our "Snail of life" coin purse collection, unique pieces handwoven by our Wayuu artisans. The spiral stitch technique was used in their creation, giving them a spiral appearance similar to a snail’s shell. Each coin purse has the same base weave, but vibrant dyes are used to create different patterns. It’s an essential accessory thanks to its compact size, eye-catching design, and zipper that allows you to carry money or small items.

This collection of coin purses carries a deep meaning that alludes to the cycle of life. In Wayuu culture, individuals are distinguished by their life experiences and have a unique perspective of the world. Thus, the vibrant colors of each coin purse represent the diversity of human experiences, symbolizing that, while each person walks a different path, we all share the beauty of life and its continuous reborn.
