Handcrafted ceremonial figures from two distinct Indigenous traditions — Ticuna coming-of-age dolls from the Colombian Amazon and Emberá woven figure sets from Panama's Darién rainforest. Ticuna pucuna dolls are carved from balsa wood, dressed in yanchama bark cloth, and painted with natural Amazon pigments. Emberá figures are woven entirely from Chunga palm fiber in male and female pairs — not carved, not painted, colored with rainforest plant dyes.
Among the Emberá figures are the Cunana muñecas — six one-of-a-kind pieces woven by hand by Rosamelia Cunana and her mother, Señora de Cunana, the only family still making them. Woven as three couples, each takes about two months to complete, and no two are alike. When one sells, it's gone for good.
Each figure carries deep cultural significance within its tradition. Sourced directly from artisans in both communities at fair prices.
