Started in 2019 by Cindy and Andrea Navarro, Apalma is a brand of accessories made by Colombian artisans. Each piece is handmade from sustainably sourced Iraca palm straw. Variation of colors, shapes, natural fibers and textures makes each bag unique with its own character and story. Apalma's designs are inspired by the rich art and culture of Colombia.
