Handwoven Palm Leaf Tote with Multicolored Sequin Stripes and Leather Handles

This tote carries the unmistakable texture of handwoven palm leaf, its diagonal weave creating a matte, tactile surface that feels substantial yet lightweight in hand. The natural beige body is interrupted by five horizontal bands of glossy sequins—pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, and silver-white—each one stitched directly onto the exterior so they catch the light with every movement. Dark brown leather handles are anchored by heart-shaped leather patches and a single metal rivet on each side, adding a subtle contrast against the braided rim that finishes the open top. Technical Specifications Material Handwoven palm leaf body; leather handles and heart-shaped reinforcement patches; metal rivets; stitched-on sequins Color Natural beige base with dark brown leather; multicolored sequin stripes (pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white/silver) Construction Diagonally woven body with braided top rim; open-top design; two top handles attached via leather patches and rivets Dimensions Tote silhouette, wider at the opening and tapering gently toward the base; fits daily essentials but not a laptop Surface Finish Matte, textured palm leaf; slight sheen on leather; glossy, reflective sequins Artisan Origin & Care Woven by artisan weaver Dounia, this bag reflects the palm-leaf tradition of rural Morocco. The sequin embellishment is a modern touch, but the core technique remains unchanged. Because the palm fiber is untreated, expect a little natural shedding during the first few uses—this is normal and diminishes quickly. The sequins are securely stitched, but avoid rubbing against delicate fabrics to prevent snagging. Pro-Tip If you plan to carry small items like keys or a phone, consider using a pouch inside the bag—the open top and unlined interior mean tiny objects can slip between the weave. This also helps protect the sequins from scratches. Your Questions Answered Will it fit a laptop? No, the tapered shape and open structure are not designed for a laptop. It comfortably holds a wallet, sunglasses, a small water bottle, and a light scarf. Is the bag lined? No, the interior is unlined, showing the natural back of the palm leaf weave. This keeps the bag lightweight and breathable, ideal for beach outings or market trips. How do I clean the sequins? Wipe gently with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid water or cleaning solutions, as they may dull the sequin finish or weaken the stitching. Can I order this in bulk for my boutique? Yes, this style is available for wholesale.
