This 'Unity in Blue' by Independent Artisans is a beautiful handwoven bracelet. The bracelet is handwoven with blue and white fine glass beads by the Wakami cooperative, and it is a beautiful reflection of a social system that connects rural artisans with global markets. The piece symbolizes dreams, hope, and unity.
María Pacheco is a Guatemalan entrepreneur whose work bridges science, community, and design. Trained as a biologist, she later studied agriculture in New York before returning home with a vision to transform cycles of poverty into circles of prosperity. After witnessing firsthand the struggles of families in refugee camps and rural villages, she founded Wakami, named after the Kaqchikel Maya word for “it already is.” Wakami connects rural artisans, most of them women, with global markets, creating income opportunities that improve nutrition, education, and stability for more than 500 families. At its heart, Wakami is both a design brand and a social system, producing handmade jewelry that symbolizes dreams, hope, and unity. Each piece carries the spirit of collaboration and the belief that individual dreams are powerful, but collective dreams are unstoppable, offering wearers a meaningful connection to purpose and possibility.
This bracelet is crafted from glass beads, zamac, and polyester cord. It features a sliding knot and measures between 5.5 and 6.5 inches long and 0.5 inches wide.
