Basket Bag 4 Tetas - Spider

Embera-Wounaan Handmade Tetera Palm Bag

Discover the authenticity and beauty of the traditional 4 tetas baskets, carried as a handbag, which are a masterpiece hand-woven by the artisans of the Wounaan and Eperara Siapidara people, native to the Pacific coast of Colombia and Panama. Made from Tetera palm, an indigenous material from the region, this bag combines tradition, aesthetics, and functionality in a single accessory.

The weaving, a result of ancestral art, brings to life figures inspired by the symbolism of nature, with designs that tell mythological and cultural stories passed down from generation to generation. Each motif represents the deep connection of the Wounaan community with their environment, making each bag a unique and meaningful work of art.

This bag is known as 4 Tetas, for its particular shape that resembles four female breasts, recalling the sinuous curves of the female body, a symbol of fertility and life in indigenous tradition.

The rigid structure gives the bag a solid and durable consistency, ideal to accompany you on any occasion. Thanks to its versatility, it is perfect both to complete a casual everyday look and to add a sophisticated and ethnic touch to an elegant outfit.
