Weave V-Handle Handwoven Tote Blue Stripe

$130.00

Crafted by refugees from Myanmar living in Thailand, this statement tote reimagines a classic form with a sharp, fashion forward V-shaped handle opening blending heritage and innovation. Each stitch, stripe, and fiber is a tribute to generations of craftsmanship and a testament to the beauty of tradition held in modern hands. This textile features traditional stripe layouts passed down through generations that carry the visual language of identity and regional storytelling, creating a tactile richness that machines cannot replicate.

In Myanmar culture, weaving is more than a craft it is a cornerstone of community, a means of economic independence, and a way of safeguarding ancestral knowledge.
