Materials & sourcing

Hand-loomed jute from Tamil Nadu. Full-grain buffalo Saddle leather, vegetable-tanned in Kanpur. Solid brass hardware from Moradabad.

Shipping & returns

Free shipping across India in 3–5 working days. International shipping calculated at checkout. 14-day return window from delivery — unused, in original dust-bag. Made-to-order pieces are non-returnable but eligible for our lifetime repair service.

Care & repair

Brush hand-loomed jute lightly with a soft brush every few weeks. The cognac leather trim takes a wax twice a year. Avoid prolonged rain; if caught, hang to dry — never wring or rub. Solid brass tarnishes honestly; rub with a dry cloth to brighten. Send the piece back to the atelier when it's tired — we re-stitch any seam for life.

Material 01 · The Craft

A weave that holds its own shape.

The Vana is the rare tote that holds its frame without lining — because the jute itself is the structure. Around that weave we set full-grain leather, brass turn-locks, and waxed-cotton seams that don't give.

Step 01 · Cut

Of the loom

The jute is hand-loomed at our partner co-operative in Tamil Nadu — bundled, soaked, and spun into a tight, structural weave that holds its shape without lining. Each panel rests for a week before cutting.

Step 02 · Stitch

In the frame

Full-grain Saddle leather forms the frame: rolled handles, top trim, base reinforcement. Every seam is waxed cotton thread, double-row on load-bearing edges, hand-finished at the edges in burnt umber.

Step 03 · Finish

By the hand

Solid brass turn-locks and rivets from Moradabad. The detachable coin purse is the final touch — a smaller echo of the body, tethered to the inside handle anchor by a leather strap.

Capacity · 10 L
