Paradise Bag

Why it's worth it

A palm tree you carry in your hand.

The Edit

Hand-woven entirely in dyed raffia by Colombian artisans, this palm tree–shaped bag features radiating frond panels outlined in cream coiling, a brown trunk base, and an arched top handle — all closed with a discreet internal magnet. The beaded crossbody strap — 110cm, hand-strung in green and white — doubles as the piece's most deliberate detail. Cotton-lined interior with a fabric storage pouch included.
