Artisan Dounia’s Herringbone Weaving Technique
Each basket requires two full days of focused handwork by Dounia, our master straw weaver, who prepares natural palm leaves before weaving them into the distinctive diagonal herringbone pattern visible throughout this bag. The tight, consistent weave creates exceptional durability while maintaining the straw’s natural flexibility. Soft cotton handles are carefully wrapped and secured with hand-cut leather tabs, ensuring comfortable carrying even when fully loaded. The four playful pom-poms are hand-sewn onto the basket rim, adding whimsical charm to traditional Moroccan basketry.
Carry Nature, Reduce Waste
This handwoven basket represents a beautiful alternative to synthetic bags and fast fashion accessories. Natural palm leaf straw is biodegradable, renewable, and develops a gorgeous patina with use. By choosing this eco-friendly tote, you’re supporting sustainable artisan communities while reducing plastic waste. One quality basket replaces hundreds of disposable bags throughout its lifetime, making sustainable living effortlessly stylish.
