Rungnapa Natural Straw Square Box Bag

Rungnapa Natural Straw Square Box Bag

Handwoven with Precision and Structure

The Rungnapa Natural Straw Square Box Bag showcases detailed handweaving and a rare geometric shape. Artisans in Northern Thailand build each piece coil by coil, working without machinery. Because they shape every line by hand, the form holds firm while maintaining lightness. The squared silhouette gives the bag strength, while the straw keeps it breathable. Over 30 hours of artisan labour go into each one. For shoppers who want more handmade, upright styles, our Handmade Straw Bags offer similar craftsmanship.

Eco-Friendly Straw with No Plastic

Every fibre in this bag comes from naturally harvested Thai straw. We use no glues, synthetic fabrics, or plastic reinforcements. That’s why the Rungnapa belongs in our Eco-Friendly Straw Bags collection. After drying the straw in the sun, artisans twist and stitch each strand by hand. This slow process keeps the bag fully biodegradable. When you choose this style, you choose sustainability without sacrificing design.

Beautiful Beaded Handle Detail

The handle isn’t just functional—it’s part of the design story. Each bead is shaped from smooth wood and hand-threaded onto natural cord. While the body keeps its cube shape, the handle adds softness with its curved form. As a result, the piece feels both architectural and approachable. Many customers tell us this is the part of the bag that earns the most compliments. For more eye-catching finishes, explore our Decorative Straw Bags.

Compact and Surprisingly Spacious

Although it appears small, the interior holds more than you’d expect. Because of its box shape, it fits a phone, wallet, compact makeup, keys, and even a notebook with ease. The base stays flat on any surface, keeping the bag upright. A drawstring lining adds extra security. If you’re looking for other smart mini options, visit our Mini Straw Bags Collection.

Whether you’re heading to brunch or a beach ceremony, this square straw bag works. It’s also a thoughtful gift. For more celebration-ready ideas, our Gift & Occasion Straw Bags are perfect for birthdays, bridesmaids, and beyond.

Thai Name Meaning: Rungnapa (รุ่งนภา)

The Thai name “Rungnapa” translates to “Radiant Sky” or “Heaven at Dawn.” That name reflects both the design’s clarity and its origins. Our team names each bag as a tribute to Thai language and identity. Choosing Rungnapa doesn’t just mean choosing a bag—it means carrying a name tied to heritage, light, and hope. If you love meaning in your fashion choices, this piece speaks your language.

Crafted by Women in Northern Thailand

This bag begins in the hands of a rural artisan in Phayao. She prepares the straw, coils the shape, threads the handle, and finishes every seam by hand. Most work from home workshops, balancing craft and family life. We pay fair wages and support these women with resources and skills training. That’s why every Rungnapa bag helps sustain traditional Thai weaving. Discover more about our story on the Our Journey page.

Vegan and Cruelty-Free by Nature

From the base to the lining to the thread, every part of this bag is plant-based. We don’t use leather substitutes or animal glues. Instead, we rely on materials that return to the earth cleanly. If you care about animal welfare and natural materials, the Rungnapa delivers both. It’s a quiet but powerful statement in the world of ethical accessories.
