Your Impact

Khana/Khun is a weave which is famous in Maharashtra and Northern parts of Karnataka. The fabric used in this bag is woven in Karnataka. The gorgeous weave is slowly reaching a stage where many weavers are stopping the work due to extremely low demand. In an attempt to revive this gorgeous weave, Chanchal sources these fabrics directly from the weavning houses where every bag is handcrafted using traditional techniques. This means that with every bag you buy, you're encouraging Indian crafts and helping provide our artisans a sustainable livelihood.

Why we like it

This ethnic bag is truly one of a kind since it is handcrafted and carries the signatures of the artistic process. It is roomy enough to carry all your daily essentials and it transitions easily from a casual day out to a more evening occasion, pairing equally well with an Indian ensemble as with Western outfits. 

Sakshi says

As someone who's always on the lookout for traditional, handmade accessories featuring Indian textile, this handbag is a fantastic find! The sizing provides lots of room to carry stuff like notebooks, keys, phones, cosmetics and wallet. It's also a great option as a gift for a friend or sister.
