El Agua (The Water) is a sacred symbol representing purity, renewal, and spiritual cleansing within the Kamentsá Biya culture. Traditionally, during the full moon, members of the community bathe in nearby streams to cleanse themselves of negative energies and attract good fortune, guided by the purifying power of water.
Handwoven by Indigenous Kamentsá artisans from the Corregimiento de Jamundino, Colombia, this beaded bracelet is crafted using the traditional guanga weaving technique, a practice passed down through generations. For the Kamentsá people, artistic creation is deeply connected to cultural preservation, spirituality, and their relationship with the land they cultivate.
Ethically made in small batches, each El Agua bracelet carries subtle variations that honor the artisan’s hand and the ancestral meaning woven into the design.
