Style tip:

The vibrant colors—intense red and deep green—are highlighted when worn against a neutral base. Consider a white, black, or beige top so the macaw pattern stands out brilliantly without competing with the rest of the outfit.

These long loops are perfect for wearing on an updo — a casual bun, low ponytail or half-updo — to showcase the lines of the jewelry, draw the eye to the face and reveal their handcrafted architecture.

To enhance their handcrafted character, pair them with fabrics like linen, washed cotton, or hemp. These textured and organic materials resonate with the indigenous Wai Wai tradition while providing a warm and natural aesthetic.
