To travel through Colombia is to be surprised by its diversity. Not only in its landscapes and flavors, but also in the objects born from the hands of its people. Colombian handicrafts are an essential part of this experience: full of color, identity and tradition, they invite you to look calmly, touch with curiosity and take away more than a souvenir – a story. <\/p>\n

Each region of the country has its own style, its own materials, its own visual language. And to travel through Colombia is also to discover the art that lives in textiles, metals, natural fibers and patiently carved objects. <\/p>\n

What handicrafts to look for on your trip to Colombia<\/h2>\n

Whether walking through an artisan market, visiting a local workshop or exploring design boutiques with identity, here are some of the most representative pieces that you can discover in different regions of the country:<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Mulish||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” custom_margin=”28px||1px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Sombrero vueltiao<\/strong>
Typical of the Colombian Caribbean and national emblem. Made with arrow cane, it is as elegant as it is resistant. Each line has a meaning, and each hat carries the seal of the person who weaves it. <\/p>\n

Hammocks<\/strong>
Colorful and hand-woven. Perfect for those who wish to take home a piece of relaxation and tradition. They are mainly found in La Guajira, C\u00f3rdoba and Magdalena. <\/p>\n

Mompox Filigree<\/strong>
A delicate jewel, made with gold or silver threads that intertwine with precision. Ideal for those looking for a subtle, refined and deeply local piece. <\/p>\n

Carved Totumo<\/strong>
In the Caribbean coast, this dried fruit is made into bowls, lamps, jewelry boxes and decorative objects. Rustic, organic and with a unique aesthetic. <\/p>\n

Arrow cane fabrics<\/strong>
In addition to hats, this fiber is used to create bags, belts and contemporary pieces that fuse tradition and modern design.<\/p>\n

In Baru: handicrafts with purpose and Caribbean flavor<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

During your stay at Hotel Agua Baru, we invite you to discover the work of Tesoro Barulero, an artisan collective led by more than 20 local women.<\/p>\n

These artisans transform the colors, textures and shapes of the environment -fish, tropical fruits, mangroves- into unique pieces full of life. Each article they make not only reflects the natural and cultural essence of Baru, but also generates income for their families, strengthening the local economy with creative, feminine hands. <\/p>\n

You can purchase their creations directly at the hotel and take home a piece with soul, color and meaning. More than a souvenir: an authentic fragment of life in the Colombian Caribbean. <\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Mulish||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” custom_margin=”7px||1px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Long live craftsmanship. Travel with the senses. <\/h2>\n

Colombian handicrafts are not only observed: they are felt, used and enjoyed. They are part of the soul of each place, and knowing them is another way to travel in depth. <\/p>\n

On your next visit to Colombia – whether in Cartagena, Barichara, Villa de Leyva, Mompox or Bar\u00fa, stop to see what is handmade. Ask about the crafts, the names behind each piece. We assure you that you will take away much more than an object: you will take away a living history. <\/p>\n

Discover Baru’s handicrafts. Support local talent. And let yourself be inspired by the authentic.
At Hotel Agua Baru by Mustique we will be happy to help you live this experience. <\/p>\n
