4 Tetas Basket Bag - Yellow Monkey

Embera-Wounaan artisan Tetera palm bag

Discover the authenticity and beauty of the traditional 4 Tetas baskets, designed to be carried as a handbag, which are a masterpiece hand-woven by the craftswomen of the Wounaan and Eperara Siapidara people, originally from 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 an 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 Wounaan community's deep connection with their environment, making each bag a unique work of art rich in meaning. This bag is known as 4 Tetas, for its particular shape reminiscent of four women's breasts, echoing 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 for accompanying you on every 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.
