Miyuki / Chaquira Beads

Miyuki & Chaquira glass beads

Our artisans lovingly handcraft delicate rings and necklaces from the finest Miyuki beads and colorful Chaquira beads. Each individual bead is carefully woven and tells a story—from the rivers and forests of Colombia, the Guajira Desert, to the Amazon. This creates a stunning interplay of color, form, and meaning.

Tierra Colombia's designs represent a modern interpretation of traditional craftsmanship. The Miyuki beads used—manufactured by Japan's oldest bead producer—are renowned worldwide for their exceptional quality and consistent shape. They perfectly showcase the delicate patterns in each piece.

Rosa Edith Gonzáles Tascón is passionate about crafting chaquira beads, deeply rooted in Latin American culture. These tiny, luminous glass beads symbolize water, life, and corn seeds—central elements of many indigenous narratives.

Our handmade jewelry from Colombia combines traditional knowledge with contemporary design – sustainably produced and in limited quantities. Each piece is unique, full of meaning and artfully handcrafted. Discover unique Colombian accessories, sustainable jewelry, and colorful beadwork at ogao now – for those seeking something special.
