Elia Dorado Backpack

Barranquilla, Atlántico, Colombia

In 2002, a group of women from Chorrera came together with a simple yet powerful idea: to knit together. Nine years later, Arte y Tejido was born, and today there are over 150 artisans who, from generation to generation, transform crochet and natural fibers into bags and home decor pieces that travel the world.

Each piece carries within it the essence of Atlántico, the Caribbean, and the hands of a community that chose to make craftsmanship its destiny.
