COLLAB: Brora x The Colombia Collective
Another look at one of our celebrated collaboration projects, this time with luxury Scottish cashmere brand Brora. We've been collaborating with Brora for a few seasons now and have been lucky enough to create a collection of unique bags which our customers love. Find out more about the collaboration below...
BRAND
The Brora brand is known internationally for all of the right reasons. With a focus on ethical design & production, they are a brand after our own heart. They pride themselves on working with the best artisans and craftspeople to create the highest quality of products with natural fibres and a sustainable ethos. No wonder it was a match made in heaven!
DESIGN
The Brora x The Colombia Collective Hand Woven Tassel Tote Bags are a statement feature for your wardrobe. Designed around the Colombian 'mochilla' style of our Wayuu Shoulder Bag, but with an added touch of pattern & colour. A signature geometric print and striped cross-body handle make these pieces the star of any outfit. With brighter styles for the spring-summer season and darker tones for autumn-winter, it's the perfect excuse to build your own collection of these limited edition bags.
ARTISANS
The Colombia Collective x Brora Hand Woven Tassel Tote Bags are intricately woven by our Wayuu artisans. The Wayuu tribe occupy the harsh desert lands in the north of Colombia and into Venezuela. It is said that the art of weaving was taught to their ancestors by a mythical spider called Waleker and to this day, weaving remains a sacred part of their culture and identity. Each Wayuu piece is made by just one woman and can take 20 to 30 days to complete.
