Moroccan Straw and Leather Tote | Handcrafted Summer Double Handle Shopper

Posted on: May 24

If you're more into authentic artisan bags that look like they came from an exotic market than the latest trendy label off Fifth Avenue, this Moroccan Straw Tote may be for you.

Handwoven in Morocco using 100% natural materials, this is a classic straw tote that will never go out of style. It would look great with most summer looks, especially something preppy for the Hamptons or nautical at the lake. In a neutral natural straw color accented with brown, it would go with a lot and could be your everyday bag for summer or a vacation.

The downside of straw totes is that their shape is very rigid. While this is part of what makes them sturdy and long lasting it can make it more difficult to fit everything you normally would in a shopper of this size.

A few rows of tighter weave at the top and bottom provide some contrast to the all-over wider weave. The braided brown leather handles are attached with metal grommets. This is a mark of quality since cheaper straw bags often have flimsy handles. This bag is a great buy for the price.
