Makua Jewelry
Makua Jewelry
This collection is elaborated by two indigenous groups, the Kuna and the Embera Chami. The Kuna patiently elaborate a textile called Mola, which is a colorful art form made with applied embroidery. The Embera Chami use an embroidery technique and looms with crystal beads to elaborate colorful unique pieces. Maria Paulina Arango is the creative mind behind each design; the production of each piece may take days to complete.
