Handcrafted Handbag
This handwoven purse is made with the natural warmth of alpaca wool and accented with genuine leather. The intricate woven patterns highlight earthy tones of beige, rust, and orange, blending traditional craftsmanship with functional design. A handmade button closure adds a personal finishing touch, making each purse one-of-a-kind. The softness of alpaca wool, paired with the durability of leather, creates both comfort and longevity. This purse embodies the spirit of slow fashion—beautifully practical, authentically crafted, and designed to be cherished.
