A chic stylish cocoon style tote bag handmade in crocheted raffia with an all over decoration of handcrafted silver flowers.
An original and distinctive tote bag for all occasions, crocheted in silver raffia in a one piece unlined shell with an integral strap handle. The full form allows for a surprisingly capacious bag. It is decorated all over with chunky handcrafted silver raffia flowers.
A bag that works both as an elegant and chic fashion accessory and also roomy enough to be useful and functional. I can see this also as a great bag for winter, a very cool accompaniment to a black wool coat.
Paper raffia is a natural recyclable organic material made from natural plant fibres, it is eco friendly bio degradable. For this bag I have used a very broad ribbon type in silver which is extra strong, yet still very lightweight, These are robust durable easy to maintain bags and, as long as not allowed to soak, will happily endure gentle washing, swished in warm soapy water, then patting dry with a towel.
