A basket tote with four handles, can be used in three ways, tote, handbag or shoulder bag. A strong closure is woven on the handle to make it durable.

This form is derived from the four-handle rattan farming basket called “fakar“ in the pangcah tribe. People can help each other to carry the heavy harvest together with multiple handles.

*Includes a linen drawstring bag.

Material

Straw Braid

In the Archetype collection, Kamaro’an collaborated with a Taiwan hat factory with an 80-year-old history. We use the old hat sewing technique for bag making.

The hat factory has a unique technique to web infinite-length straw braid and has a wealth of sewing legacy. We also developed a special sewing method and coating to make the bag strong and durable.

Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather

Vegetable-tanned cowhide has a smooth finish while retaining the natural full grain with a unique aspect and touch.

Over time, the leather tanned by vegetables will nourish and evolve, developing a patina.
