Barranquero Earrings

Colombia’s birdlife inspired our AANAJÚ collection (meaning "us" in the Mokanà language). Through it, we reflect the country's avian biodiversity—including introduced species that have become part of our daily lives, such as the peacock, with its elegant and striking plumage. The collection plays with an ethnic-boho chic style, complementing and elevating any outfit, even the simplest ones.

This is natural jewelry crafted from the fruit of the *totumo* tree (also known as *jícara*, *guaje*, *bule*, *tapara*, *tecomate*, *huacal*, *wingo*, *higüero*, *cutuco*, *pate*, or *calabazo*—a type of gourd).

We employ jewelry-making techniques on natural fiber; the hands of our master artisans transform the material through cutting, sanding, engraving, texturing, dyeing, and sealing. This process achieves a matte finish that highlights the natural grain, resulting in an organic look.

Here is how we make them: The *totumo* shell is strong and fibrous, making it an ideal base for cutting and carving our designs. Afterward, we apply translucent dyes and embellish the pieces with acrylic stones. The result is a beautiful, handcrafted piece of natural jewelry made with love.
