Sustainable Style That Replaces Plastic
Carry nature with you while reducing plastic waste. This handwoven basket bag offers a biodegradable alternative to synthetic totes, crafted from renewable palm straw and raffia harvested using sustainable methods. The natural fibers develop a beautiful patina over time, creating a one-of-a-kind piece that transcends fast fashion trends. Each use supports traditional artisan communities and demonstrates your commitment to eco-conscious living without sacrificing style or functionality.
Artisan Dounia’s Traditional Basket-Weaving Craft
Each bag requires approximately two days of skilled handwork using time-honored coiling techniques passed through generations. Artisan Dounia carefully prepares natural palm fronds, weaving them in continuous spirals with a tight herringbone pattern while integrating the fluffy raffia fringe bands directly into the structure for maximum durability. The cognac leather handles are hand-cut and attached with reinforced cross-stitch patterns that distribute weight evenly across stress points, ensuring years of reliable use even when fully loaded with groceries or beach gear.
