Ruanas Pereiranas

Ruanas Pereiranas — Handwoven Colombian Warmth

Born in the highlands of Colombia, the ruana is more than a garment — it's a piece of living history.

For centuries, artisans in the Colombian Andes have woven these soft, poncho-style wraps by hand, carrying forward traditions passed down through generations of Indigenous and Mestizo communities. Each ruana begins as raw wool or cotton, carefully spun, dyed, and woven on looms using techniques that haven't changed in hundreds of years.

Our Ruanas Pereiranas come directly from skilled artisans in Colombia's Coffee Region. They're lightweight yet warm, draped with an effortless elegance that works whether you're heading out on a cool morning or layering up for an evening gathering — one size, endless ways to wear it.

 

 

Mochilas Pereiranas

Again, an authentic mochila. This one is very elegant, decorated with a neckace of pearled-like covered balls as decorative stones, as well as wooden-like balls. This is made with a shiny "cordón" thread with a crochet technique. This you can ask to get customized with your flag or colors of your preference. It comes with fancy golden metalic clips and an inner closing broche. You can wear it for a fancy outing or elegant party.

What makes them special:

100% handmade by Colombian artisans using traditional weaving methods

Vibrant, natural colors that reflect the landscapes and culture of the Andes

Versatile — wear it as a wrap, a shawl, a blanket, or a statement piece

One of a kind — no two ruanas are exactly alike

Once sold at Saks Fifth Avenue in the 1960s, the ruana has become a timeless part of the global fashion vocabulary. Now you can own an authentic piece of Colombian heritage, handcrafted with care and shipped straight from Colombia to your home.
