Accessory bags
This collection houses our smaller bags, such as coin bags, cosmetic bags and gift bags. The common denominator is the small size and versatility of the bags.
Our variety in partner artisans is reflected by the variety of art work used to create the bags. Some are made with intricate mirror-work embroidery, others by recycling cotton and turning it into paper. They are all very affordable and make for great gifts to offer in your store!
