Weaving History
We design and produce ethically handcrafted pieces for conscious businesses and costumers.
We are Ochabe: a woman owned and Colombian business born from the inspiration of Grandmother ‘Ocha’ and great grandmother ‘Machabe’, two women of indigenous ancestry that maintained and passed down the artisanal weaving practiced by the people of Usiacuri.
Our products are handmade using the natural fibers of the Iraca palm, and every product we make preserves the ancestral techniques handed down to us from the weaving community of Usiacuri, Colombia.
