Produced by Toino Abel, this Colorful Basket Bag is a prime example of how this Portuguese heritage brand has rescued the ancient craft of reed basket-making. Toino Abel jumpstarted this initiative at a vital time, when reed-weaving artisans were few and old. Without them, this craft would have been lost. Workers at Toino Abel learned this craft by working side by side with the remaining weavers. Gradually, they refined the process and elevated the quality of every single step. This Colorful Reed Basket Bag boasts a vibrant checkerboard. The bag features a leather strap that secures the top of the bag, woven leather top handles and a long, removable leather strap for wearing the bag crossbody or over the shoulder. The Colorful Reed Basket Bag is sourced by A Vida Portuguesa, a small, women-owned Lisbon-based shop focused on goods made in Portugal.
