Washein was launched in 2017 by Colombian wayuu native Claudia as an artisan-made brand that blends the most beautiful crafts from the native Wayúu tribe of Colombia with current design aesthetic. The collections include straw hats and bags along with a growing home accessories range of tableware. 

Before Claudia launched Washein, she took over the direction of the Nazareth Hospital in 2012. It is from there where she saw the need for Indigenous patients with Tuberculosis after having completed phase one of the treatment, to feel productive to support their families. This is why in 2017, Claudia decided to start Washein. She started Washein with the aim of supporting them in the commercialization of their handicraft products, she established a costing study with them so they were able to obtain a fair profit.
