These bags are ecofriendly and primarily made out of Raffia palm fibre and colored used vegetable-based dyes. Madagascar is home to the raffia palm where these bags are made by local artisans in a sustainable manner. Every purchase helps empower the skilled African artisans that we partner with.
Since every bag is handmade there may be slight and subtle variations in color, pattern and size from bag to bag. This is what makes every bag unique and true piece of African art.
