La Palmera Handbag

Why it's worth it

A bag shaped like a giant seashell — it is the vacation.

The Edit

Hand-coiled raffia in a full fan-shell silhouette, each rib outlined in bright green raffia wrap stitching and finished with three silk tassels on gold jump-ring hardware at the base. The beaded green strap is handmade and attaches at the shell's apex; closure is a discreet internal magnet over a cotton lining. Entirely handmade by Colombian artisans, so minor variations in weave tension are built into the piece.

Insider Tip

Best placed smack in the middle of the dinner table before you even sit down.
