Details

A relaxed, basket-shaped tote hand-woven in iraca fiber, finished with leather handles for an elevated take on an everyday carry. 

Includes crossbody strap. 

Dimensions: 

Handcrafted in Bogotá, Colombia, where every piece reflects the artisan’s touch. Variations are not flaws—they’re part of what makes each piece uniquely yours.

Care Guide

Leather and natural fibers are living materials, so small marks, lines, and slight color variations are normal. Colors can also shift gently with use. It’s part of what makes each bag one of a kind. Wipe leather with a lightly moistened cloth and neutral cream; brush the woven iraca with a soft, dry cloth. Keep away from water, solvents, perfume, dyes, and heat. Store stuffed with tissue paper in the dust bag, with nothing heavy on top.

Threading Heritage into Modern Form

Meet Mónica Millan G. —an accessories designer trained in Milan—who leads a small team of artisans in Bogotá, Colombia, where every piece is thoughtfully handmade. Working primarily with certified leathers and hand-woven natural fibers—cumare palm, iraca, and fique sourced from artisan communities across the Andes and Amazon—she approaches each design with the precision of Italian craftsmanship and the soul of Colombian heritage.
