Bold, tactile, and deeply rooted in heritage, this hand-woven shoulder bag is a true statement of Moroccan craftsmanship. Made entirely by hand using a specialised weaving technique traditionally reserved for carpet-making, each bag carries the strength, structure, and artistry of time-honoured loom work.
The open, triangular silhouette is created through an intricate interlacing of yarns, producing a dense yet flexible weave that is both durable and visually striking. This carpet-inspired technique gives the bag exceptional texture and depth, setting it apart from conventional crochet styles. Long, fluid fringes cascade from the base, adding movement and an unmistakably bohemian character with every step.
Designed for effortless wear, the bag features sturdy hand-woven shoulder straps that sit comfortably on the shoulder, even when carried full. Its generous interior easily accommodates everyday essentials—perfect for city days, beach outings, markets, or travel—while the open weave allows glimpses of colour and fabric beneath, enhancing its artisanal appeal.
Each piece is handmade individually, meaning no two bags are exactly alike. Subtle variations in weave and finish are not imperfections but a testament to its handcrafted nature.
