A half-moon handbag hand-woven from water hyacinth, finished with a round natural handle. Available in S / M.
Water hyacinth is cleared from rivers and canals in Vietnam's Mekong Delta, dried in the sun beside the river, then woven by hand into the same half-moon shape and round handle for every bag. Read the full story of how it's made →
The half-moon shape and round handle are simple to weave well, which suits the way we work with materials — building the collection around what a workshop already does best, rather than asking for a shape that isn't natural to the technique.
Carry it as an everyday handbag, or for the beach, market runs, and resort-style outfits — it's sized to hold the essentials without becoming a full tote. Each bag is woven and shaped entirely by hand, so no two are ever perfectly identical.
From a sun-warmed boardwalk to a quiet side street, the Water Hyacinth Handbag is sized for wherever the day takes you.
Water hyacinth, a natural fiber cleared from rivers and canals in Vietnam's Mekong Delta, dried by the river, then hand-woven.

No — each bag is handmade, so slight variation in size (±1–2 cm) and color between pieces is normal.
