The Craft Story 

These Gaita Palm Tropical Basket Bags are handcrafted in Boyacá, Colombia by the Bagué Association, a collective of skilled artisans dedicated to preserving traditional weaving techniques.

Using natural gaita palm fibres, each bag is carefully handwoven into structured forms that balance durability with lightness. The addition of cotton canvas lining and leather elements enhances both function and longevity, while maintaining a strong connection to traditional craftsmanship.

Each piece is entirely handmade, resulting in subtle variations that make every bag unique — a reflection of heritage, skill and artistry.

Product Care

• Wipe gently with a damp cloth and allow to dry thoroughly
• Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture
• Avoid extreme heat (do not leave in hot cars)

Handcrafted Variation Note

Each piece is handcrafted individually, meaning slight variations in tone, texture and measurement (up to 20%) are a natural part of the process — and what makes your piece entirely your own. This is not considered a fault.
