Display a piece of art that is rooted in ancient techniques and indigenous practices. These modern bracelets are handmade with a weaving technique referred to as the "Ant Path" pattern. These unique pieces were created by designer Iuçana Mouco from the northern state of Amazonas. The raw sustainable material she uses is the Arumã fiber, widely used by the Amazonian Indians for the production of baskets and utensils. In this piece, we highlight the unique work of the Kubeo ethnic group, specialists in this ancient art that was passed down by their ancestors. Through this technique, they turn the Arumã fiber into a delicate and symmetrical pattern that mimics fabric. The design also includes a convenient and stylish magnetic clap.
