This bag was handmade in Nigeria. The sides, straps, and clasp are made of a unique leather found in the Kano region. These elements are hand stitched to the front and back, which are made from straw mats that are a cultural staple. There is also a handle so this bag doubles as a hand bag. Each bag is unique in its making, so allow for slight differences in the final product.
Large Bag Dimensions: 15.5″L “13.5”H 4.5″W
Growing up with these straw mats in my home, I’d always thought they would make a beautiful purse. On one of my trips to Nigeria, I decided to see the idea through, and it became my every day handbag. I never thought of selling them until strangers started coming up to me asking where I got the bag! I love the idea of sharing the beauty and artistry of where my family is from. It’s truly a unique and beautiful bag. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
