By Lorraine Caputo

If you can’t make it to the far corners of Colombia, drop by Manos Colombianas. Here you’ll find crafts from near and far by Colombia’s diverse indigenous nations. By the Kuna of the Chocó are colorful, hand-stitched molas. By the Wayuu of the Guajira and the Arhuaco of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, are their famous bags. Artisan work comes all the way over the Cordillera Oriental, from the deep Amazon and llanos regions as well. Fine Boyacense weavings and Ráquira pottery are also for sale.
