From the brand: Rooted in Ecuador’s ancestral weaving traditions, the Toquilla Straw Shigra Bag is handwoven by women artisans from the Central Andes using cabuya fiber and toquilla straw. Each piece is then adorned with handwoven toquilla beads crafted in the Northern Andes, blending techniques from two regions into a single work of art.
The design is elevated with a bamboo handle, while the cotton canvas lining and gold-tone hardware bring modern practicality. Inside, a conveniently sized pocket makes it easy to organize essentials.
Available in two sizes, the Shigra Bag is lightweight, durable, and deeply meaningful—a cultural statement as well as a versatile accessory for everyday wear or special occasions.
Small: 10.2” × 7.4” × 4.3” (26 × 19 × 11 cm)
Medium: 11.4” × 9.8” × 4.7” (29 × 25 × 12 cm)
Each shigra is handmade, meaning that no two are exactly alike. Slight variations in color or size are a mark of authenticity, ensuring every piece is truly unique.
