Each Tres Palmeras bag is one of a kind, a unique piece of nature hand-made by artisans from the beautiful costal region of Manabi, Ecuador. The straw used to make this bag is 100% Toquilla, the same used for the iconic Panama Hat. The common misconception is that the Panama Hat is from Panama. The truth is that the origin of the Panama Hat has always been and will always be made in Ecuador where the best Toquilla Palm leaves grow. By supporting small communities and their families you are helping to promote their art, encouraging them to keep the legendary tradition of handwoven Toquilla craft alive.
Artisan Handmade
Each bag is unique, bearing the complex handwoven processes used in the art of working with toquilla straw . Most of our handbags are woven in the color of natural toquilla straw, but just like the Panama Hats, you can find designs in different colors and styles.
