Hand Woven Pilwa Bag

The classic ‘Pilwa’ bag is made for daily use as a purse to store your belongings or accompany you to the market to hold your fruits and vegetables. They are hand woven by a couple in Araucania, Chili. They are traditionally woven by indigenous people of Chili named the Mapuche. ‘Pilwa’ bags are made using a plant known as Chupon or Gregahia Specia, one of nature's sturdiest materials. We love to use this bag as a purse and as a decoration hung up on the house. These traditional Pilwa bags can hold up to 30 pounds. Handcrafted in Chile.
