Product Description
Kenyan artisans expertly weave long strips of fiber extracted from banana palm leaves to bring you this down-to-earth open top tote bag. Naturally variegated, this bag includes a handy flat bottom with a leather trimmed top and handles..

A popular choice for eco-conscious shopping, the totes are durable and natural: perfect for toting all your fresh market finds. Measures 10"D x 19"T (12"T to top of bag, without handles).

Slight variations may occur due to the handmade nature of this product.

In Nairobi's Banana Hill suburb, African artisans utilize the fiber of banana palm trees, which grow prolifically in East Africa, to create whimsical gifts for local sale and export. Geoffrey and George head up a group of talented creatives with a penchant for portraying nuances of African life through this sustainable, all-natural medium.

Swahili Modern works directly with artisans in over 10 African countries to bring you handmade, original designs. All of our products are fair trade certified by the Fair Trade Federation, and our artisans are fairly compensated.

For a limited time only, all orders ship with a free gift! Gifts will vary and include items such as a shea butter lip balm, soapstone box, or safari pocket mirror. One free gift per order. This small gift is our way of saying thank you for supporting fair trade in Africa.
