Our
timeless atta grass purses & handbags are
woven from a vine indigenous to the foothills of Bali's valcanoes.
It is split and woven into purses, baskets,
boxes, coster, etc. by master
weavers from one area of Bali. The rich brown color is created
by smoking the artifacts in a smoke house using a fire of coconut
hesks that are soaked in honey. The color will not wear off nor
will the slight smoky scent. Some purses have black designs which
are woven with the root of the vine.
