Chorakhe Woven Vegan Wooden Handle Straw Handbag
Chorakhe Woven Vegan Wooden Handle Straw Handbag – A Minimalist Masterpiece
The Chorakhe Woven Vegan Wooden Handle Straw Handbag stands out for its bold structure and clean, basket-like weave. This compact, sculpted tote is meticulously handwoven from dark-toned natural straw using time-honoured techniques. Its signature curved shape and bold black wooden-style handles create a contemporary contrast that feels both timeless and fresh. Whether you’re dressing up for a summer event or heading to a city brunch, this handcrafted vegan handbag works effortlessly across seasons and outfits.
Handwoven Craftsmanship from Thailand
This handbag takes up to 36 hours to create by hand. Each strand is placed with care by artisans in rural Northern Thailand who use simple tools and generations-old techniques. From shaping the rounded base to tightly binding the grid pattern, every detail is done by hand—not machines. We celebrate these makers by ensuring every sale supports their livelihoods and the survival of their craft.
Crafted from Sustainable Plant-Based Fibres
Made from responsibly harvested straw, the Chorakhe bag is fully vegan and biodegradable. Its raw material is sun-dried, hand-sorted, and free from harmful chemicals. The wooden-style handles are vegan too—made from sustainable, cruelty-free sources. As part of our eco-friendly straw bags collection, it supports conscious fashion values in both form and function.
Everyday Simplicity with Statement Appeal
This is the kind of bag that draws attention without trying. The basket weave adds texture while the minimalist black handle makes a refined statement. Compact but structured, it holds small essentials like your phone, lipstick, keys, and sunglasses. The flat bottom helps it sit upright, and the open top gives quick access while maintaining its shape. Style it with linen, denim, monochrome or brights—it’s built to go with anything.
Ideal for Summer City Days & Global Getaways
Lightweight, sculptural, and bold, the Chorakhe handbag is made for easy-going adventures. You might take it to a café in Seoul, a rooftop in Marrakech, or a weekend stroll in New York. It’s compact enough for your essentials and elegant enough for both day and evening looks. We’ve designed it to suit both city life and summer travel.

Giving Back with Every Bag
When you purchase the Chorakhe Woven Vegan Wooden Handle Straw Handbag, you directly support families in Northern Thailand.

It’s part of our Buddhist-inspired values of metta (loving kindness) and dana (generosity), guiding everything we do.
Why We Chose the Name ‘Chorakhe’
The word “Chorakhe” means ‘crocodile’ in Thai, symbolising strength, protection, and quiet power. This bag’s curved base and textured weave nod to the creature’s form—balanced, resilient, and naturally strong. It’s a name chosen to reflect both boldness and tradition.
Caring for Your Vegan Straw Bag
Store your Chorakhe bag in a cool, dry space away from direct sunlight. Don’t use plastic bags for storage—instead, opt for a cotton dust bag. If it becomes dusty, gently wipe with a soft cloth. Should it get damp, let it air-dry naturally. Avoid chemicals or harsh cleaners, and your bag will age beautifully.
Loved by Global Slow Fashion Enthusiasts
This handbag is popular with women across the world. From Tokyo to Toronto, our customers wear their woven straw handbags with pride—pairing them with earthy tones, neutral palettes, or pops of colour. The strong handle and sculpted body make it a fashion-forward addition to capsule wardrobes and slow fashion collections alike.
Natural Texture with Intentional Detail
Each weave is slightly different—because it’s made by hand, not by factory. The surface has a natural grid pattern that feels structured to the touch and rich in character. The rounded shape softens the bold silhouette, creating a tactile balance that machine-made bags simply can’t match.
A Perfect Gift for Conscious Style Seekers
This is a gift for those who appreciate thoughtful details. Whether you’re buying for a birthday, a stylish friend, or treating yourself, this handbag delivers quality, ethics, and style in one. Add a card or personalised charm to make the gift more meaningful.
