The Story Behind the Bags
The Maadi women in Cairo have been creating these beautiful handbags as part of a community-driven women empowerment project. This initiative aims to provide these talented women with the skills, resources, and opportunities they need to support themselves and their families. Each bag is a testament to their dedication, craftsmanship, and the love they pour into their work.
The textile
We traveled from Cairo, deep into the desert town named Siwa to source the most beautiful, unique textiles The textiles are all handmade, traditional Egyptian craftsmanship. As every textile is handmade, no bag is exactly the same.
After sourcing our textiles, they go to the Maadi women in Cairo who work with heart and soul to make the bags into a little piece of colorful art.
