CAPULLANAS PIURA PERU

The Capullanas are a traditional garment from the Piura region, in Peru. They are long and colorful skirts, with designs and embroidery made by hand by artisan women. These skirts are part of the typical clothing of Piuran women, and represent the identity and culture of the region.

The Capullanas are characterized by being made with cotton or wool fabric, in vibrant colors such as red, yellow, green and blue. In addition, they usually have designs of flowers, animals and geometric elements, which are embroidered with threads of different shades.

These skirts are highly appreciated and valued both locally, nationally and internationally, as they are considered a true work of art. Each embroidery takes hours of dedication and patience, and each one of them tells a story through their designs.

The Capullanas are not only used as a garment, but are also a symbol of the cultural identity of the Piura region. They are used in traditional festivities and celebrations, such as patron saint festivities and carnivals, where Piura women wear them with great pride.

In addition to the Capullanas, in Piura you can also find other artisan products such as toquilla straw hats, bags, blankets and jewelry. All of them made with ancestral techniques and native materials.

Crafts in Piura are an important economic activity for the region, as it generates employment and contributes to local development. In addition, it is a way to preserve and transmit the cultural traditions of the area.

If you have the opportunity to visit Piura, I recommend that you purchase a Capullana or another artisanal product, to take with you a little piece of Piuran culture. I am sure you will appreciate the beauty and value of these unique pieces.
