These dolls are a creation of the Tikuna people of the Colombian Amazon basin. They are made from a rainforest treebark cloth called yanchama. The bark is cut and shaped before painting with vegetable dyes. Each doll is unique, traditional and original.
Over the last year the Indigo Arts website has remained active despite the widespread shutdowns due to the COVID-19 virus. Under current rules I have been able to resume operations but must limit visitors to the gallery, by appointment only. I am able to pack and ship most orders within a few days. Shipping times have increased during this period.
Note: USPS has been so slow that we recommend avoiding it entirely, at least for the present. Parcels sent by 2 or 3 Day Priority Mail may take 2 to 4 weeks to arrive.
Please stay safe in these difficult times.
We wish you all a healthier, saner and more civil 2021.
