Sustainably wearable art to elevate your everyday

We are Ochabe, a Chicago-based social impact brand partnering with independent women entrepreneurs in Colombia to handcraft our collection of jewelry, bags and home decor. All our accessories and home goods are handwoven from sustainable iraca palm by professional weavers who live and work in Usiacuri, Atlantico and Sandona, Narino, Colombia.
