This colourful striped woven shopper is made from sustainably-sourced Kenyan sisal, with horizontal pastel stripes of orange, purple and pink. With its soft leather carry handles, this is a carry-all for every occasion. Use yours as an everyday handbag with plenty room to pack for weekend breaks, shopping trips and beach days – they come in two handy sizes.

The talented women who produce these woven shoppers are led by chairlady Mbeti who set up this flourishing weaving group single-handedly. She now leads twelve weaving groups with over thirty weavers in each group – practically all of them women who have been taught this age-old craft by their mothers and grandmothers. Inspirational Mbeti has built a weavers’ centre with her savings, and it’s from here that she runs the group, stores basket weaving materials and supplies, and prepares completed orders for shipping.
