“What a great bag!” “Thank you, Sterling grins, think fish market. Really, what do you mean? the woman asks. Well, I was in a Bali village fish market and came across this bag. Local fishermen keep their fish alive in it and then put it on their backs like a backpack and happily take their fresh fish home in it. It’s made of a rare rattan that grows by seed. Peasants sit on grass mats and weave each bag by hand, a skill passed on for generations. Wow, the woman responds.”

Yes, women love it, and we are helping these gentle people to survive.” Thus, this bag, like human beings, is not machine-made, so none are perfect, and all have the touch of the weaver. It can be on one shoulder or used as a backpack.

It is so flexible that it folds over easily in a suitcase, car, or airplane plane and yet is strong! Perfect for green lifestyles for Spring, Summer, and Fall, this tote is used for shopping, yoga, soccer games, workout, beach, and groceries.
