On the Pacific Coast of Colombia, indigenous people from the Wounaan community work with CasaLatina to weave accessories from Werregue palm fibres. The Gotas basket, characterised by a black, white and copper diamond pattern, is a prime example of their masterful craftsmanship, rich heritage and cultural importance. Originally crafted with texture so solid and compact baskets like this one were used to carry water. The skills have been passed down through generations; now each piece is woven by an individual artisan over a period of several months. Suitable for decoration or dried flowers, please note this design is not water-tight.
