We call our Cactus Silk Bags and Clutches little pieces of art. Each is beautifully crafted and every one of them unique. The bags are cut from individual rugs that are handwoven on wooden looms by women in the villages surrounding the Medina. Each rug is entirely different - so each bag is one-of-a-kind.
Made entirely by hand in Morocco and woven from the silky fibers of the Aloe Vera Cactus. Cultivated in the Saharan desert, the cactus fibers are soaked, separated, dried, and spun into fiber. The hand-dyed colors are derived from roots, berries, spices, leaves, and wood creating a 100% artisanal and ecological fabric.
The patterns of our bags revolve around themes of fertility, love, voluptuousness, god, earth, and life ... respecting and honoring ancient Berber traditions. We know you will cherish these authentic artisanal, yet functional, bags as much as we do.
I love the cactus silk tote. It holds a everything I need it to. The texture of the fabric is really fun and it is completely lined. The only thing I would change is a snap to hold it closed.
I love this bag! It’s a really beautiful bag, very nicely made and very roomy!
I am a repeat customer. I couldn’t be more happy with my purchases. I am enjoying my new bag and the quality shows itself. The color is true to what I chose on website. Well done!
