The Shawadawa, also known as the “People of the Macaw,” are an Indigenous tribe from the heart of the Amazon rainforest in Acre, Brazil. Their name comes from their native Panoan language - shawã meaning “macaw” and dawa meaning “people.” Deeply connected to the forest, the Shawadawa live in harmony with nature, guided by ancestral knowledge and rich spiritual traditions that honor the animals, rivers, and spirits of the Amazon.
Each piece of jewelry is handcrafted by the women of the Shawadawa tribe. Every creation is one of a kind, carrying the spirit of the forest, the rhythm of the rivers, and the wisdom of the animals that inspire its design. The colors, shapes, and symbols used in each piece reflect the tribe’s spiritual connection to nature, representing protection, strength, and harmony. By wearing this jewelry, you carry a piece of the Amazon’s soul and help preserve ancient traditions passed down through generations.
