Caña Flecha is a sugar cane like plant that is only found along the coastal regions of Colombia, South America. The Zenu Tribe cultivates the thin stalk-like leaves using processes and techniques that date back to the 1500s and weaves them into various geometric patterns creating these unique bracelets.

These beautiful bracelets are crafted by some of the remaining Zenu Indians of Colombia. They braid strips of caña flecha, that has been used by their ancestors for centuries. These folks are loyal to their cultural legacy but had been stripped of their riches, lands and possessions by colonial settlers. They're using their ancestor's pre-Columbian weaving techniques to create jewelry for you with contemporary designs.

All of these fairly traded bracelets have 2 finished ends so you can expand them to put it on your wrist easily.
