Brown Labyrinth Flap Caña Flecha Shoulder Bag with Beaded Handles

A maze of chocolate and cream stripes meets a striped fold-over flap at the front, with a softly textured natural weave on the back. Rope handles with wooden rings and beads complete the look.

Who made it

This bag was handwoven by the artisans of Fundación La Otra Vuelta, a non-profit foundation of 46 artisan associates in Sincelejo, Colombia. Community elders braid the caña flecha, a native Colombian palm fibre, by hand, strand by strand, and the foundation's artisans turn those braids into the bag you'll be carrying. The foundation pays its artisans a fairer price for every braid, so your bag helps keep a living tradition, and the people behind it, thriving.
