Our block print bags are made with cotton hand-stamped using carved wooden blocks — an Indian craft passed down through generations. Each motif is pressed by hand, so slight variations in ink and alignment are the signature of a true hand block-printed bag, not a flaw.

Hand-Stamped, in Small Seasonal Runs

From The Peony's ivory florals to The Porto's cobalt botanicals, every block print clutch, mini bag and shoulder bag is produced in limited seasonal runs and finished with structured frames or wooden handles. Light, vegan and easy to carry from day to evening.
