Duangjai Floral Tassel Summer Straw Tote

Playful Straw Tote for Summer Adventures

The Duangjai Floral Tassel Summer Straw Tote is all about joyful detail. Its combination of soft colours, tassel movement, and hand-stitched floral embroidery makes it feel light, casual, and happy. Whether you’re heading to the park, beach, or a weekend farmer’s market, this bag adds a pop of texture and personality to your outfit.

The round half-moon shape rests neatly under your arm, and the body stands up on its own thanks to tight, traditional coiling. You can wear it with cotton dresses, relaxed denim, or even resortwear. The look is fun, but never flimsy.

If you like accessories that feel seasonal, story-driven, and ethically made — Duangjai delivers. It’s built for movement, sunshine, and everyday joy.

Woven by Hand Using Traditional Thai Coiling

Each Duangjai tote is crafted by a team of women weavers in Northern Thailand who specialise in coiled straw techniques. They begin by drying water hyacinth in the sun, then tightly coil and stitch it into place, forming the curved bag body with precision and strength.

This process takes over 25 hours and involves zero machinery. The artisans shape the handles, reinforce the seams, and stitch every detail by hand. The floral and ladybird appliqués are added at the end — a nod to garden blooms and insect life.

When you carry Duangjai, you’re not only styling a summer outfit — you’re honouring generations of Thai craftsmanship and directly supporting local communities. For more artisan-made pieces, visit our Handmade Collection.

Layered Fabric Tassels with Natural Movement

The tassel detailing on the Duangjai tote is its most dynamic feature. Made from layers of soft fibre, the tassels flow in green, blue, and earthy brown — colours inspired by Thai landscapes. They move as you walk, adding a sense of fun and natural rhythm to the bag.

Each tassel is sewn securely beneath the handle bow, giving the illusion that they’re hanging from the ribbon. They don’t snag or tangle thanks to their soft tiered structure and rounded finish.

This is what makes Duangjai so versatile — you can dress it up or down, and the tassels always add that little extra something. Whether it’s a photo moment or just your daily walk, this detail turns heads.

Floral Ribbon Handle That Feels Like Spring

The handles on the Duangjai tote are thick, round, and wrapped in a floral cotton blend fabric. The design features powder-blue tones with small rose and daisy prints — soft, vintage, and fresh.

Tied into a double bow, the ribbon looks beautiful from every angle and sits high for easy gripping. It adds a feminine, floral finish that sets this tote apart from others in the collection. And because it’s sewn in place, it won’t come loose during use.

You can request alternate colours through our Personalised Bags service, matching your wardrobe or summer palette.

Nature-Inspired Embroidery with Ladybird Details

One of the most charming aspects of the Duangjai tote is its embroidered accents. On one side, you’ll find two flowers — one sky-blue, one grassy green — alongside a small hand-stitched yellow ladybird with black spots. These embroidered elements are playful without being childish.

They symbolise growth, change, and lightness — everything summer stands for. The design is placed low on the bag, allowing it to peek out subtly when carried.

Each appliqué is stitched in place using cotton thread and careful positioning, ensuring both durability and softness. These flourishes make Duangjai stand out as a piece with meaning, movement, and handmade charm.

Rounded Straw Bag with Upright Base

Although it has a playful tone, the Duangjai tote is thoughtfully structured. Its round base is flat and reinforced, allowing the bag to stand up when set down. The sides are coiled in a way that supports shape without bulk.

This means it looks composed even when partially full — and keeps items like your phone or makeup pouch from tipping around inside.

The open-top design adds to its laid-back feel, but you can request an internal pocket, drawstring lining, or clasp closure if needed. Lightweight but sturdy, Duangjai proves you don’t have to choose between design and function.

Spacious Interior That Keeps Things Simple

The Duangjai tote might look compact, but it holds more than you’d expect. With a wide curved body and open interior, there’s plenty of room for summer essentials. Pop in your sunglasses, water bottle, sunscreen, a small pouch, and even your favourite paperback. It’s built for carefree moments without feeling bulky.

Thanks to the structured straw and upright base, the contents don’t slide around. If you’d like internal organisation, we offer custom pocket additions or cotton linings through our Personalised Bag service.

Whether you’re exploring a local market or heading out for a picnic, Duangjai makes packing light feel effortless and stylish.

Ethical and Eco-Friendly from Straw to Stitch

This bag is fully biodegradable and made with zero plastic. From the hand-coiled water hyacinth body to the plant-based glue and fabric elements, every material is responsibly sourced. We don’t use synthetic blends or chemical dyes — even the embroidery threads are cotton.

Our packaging is equally sustainable. We wrap each tote in compostable wrap and include a reusable cotton dust bag with every order. Nothing goes to waste, and nothing feels overproduced.

For eco-conscious shoppers looking to make beautiful, responsible choices, Duangjai is a guilt-free favourite.

Perfect for Gifting, Summer Birthdays, and Holidays

Looking for a thoughtful present that feels personal? The Duangjai Floral Tassel Summer Straw Tote makes a joyful gift for birthdays, thank-you gestures, or pre-holiday surprises. Its happy design and hand-touched details make it feel special right out of the box.

Add a monogram, custom lining, or note inside the bag for that extra touch. It also makes a great bridesmaid or flower girl gift — especially for summer weddings with a nature or garden theme.

It’s a gift that’s not only beautiful, but usable every day.
