Colombian Boho

Introducing Colombian Boho!

All terracotta pottery is made in a small village in the centre of Colombia, called Ráquira. Ráquira literally means “pueblo de ollas” or “village of pottery”. Making pottery has been a tradition in Ráquira for centuries because of the natural presence of clay in the area. This type of clay cannot be found in any other part of Colombia. Even before the Spanish arrived in Colombia, the indigenous “Muiscas” were famous for their pottery and ceramics. There have been found pottery pieces in the area that date back to 8000 before Christ! As a result of the indigenous heritage, the craft passed from generation to generation and up to the present day, more than 80% of the town’s population makes a living with these artisanally crafted pots. Every family of craftsmen has their own ceramics workshop connected to their home.

Nevertheless, a lot of younger people don’t see their future in making pottery and go live in the bigger cities. All the more reason to support the local community of craftsmen in Ráquira, create better prospects and secure the further existence of their beautiful craft. It would be such a shame if this ancient tradition with strong indigenous roots became extinct. In addition, there are many craftsmen who make beautiful pieces but they don’t have the resources or knowledge to commercialize them. That is where Colombian Boho wants to make a difference for the community.
