These boho style shoulder bags were hand-woven by a native artisan from the Peruvian Amazon, with natural and durable chambira palm fiber.  They are great for carrying a lap-top to a coffee shop, shopping in a outdoor market or toting your towel, good book and suntan lotion to the beach.  This simple but elegant pattern features double bands of yellow and green, blue-green and yellow, or orange and green, woven with "shirui" tight-knit chevrons.  The comfortable shoulder strap is 1 1/4" wide by 39" long.

A tag lists the artisan's name and community and the plants they used to make it. Please note that each handmade bag may vary from the photo shown.

& rainforest in the Amazon

Amazon forest loss is driving species to extinction, aggravating global warming, and robbing people of unique medicines, foods and other benefits. Cutting and burning forests is often more profitable than conserving them, so some native communities in northern Peru have illegally logged and grown coca and other cash-crops to escape poverty.
