About the Item

Step into summer with a fun and functional 1950's straw tote handbag. The exotic design will transport you to the tropics with the body of the large handbag woven in coconut fibers that have the texture and look of straw colored a marvelous shade of dark coral. To add a touch of whimsy, contrasting floral shaped pom poms accent the silhouette in shades of pink, lilac, buttery yellow and sage green. The interior is unlined though expertly woven and stitched to provide a strong and roomy compartment for all your modern day accessories. The braided double handle is easy to carry and the open tote style is perfect for travel or the beach. Very good condition with some variations of color to the straw both light and dark. Please note, It does tend to shed a bit due to the natural fibers. MEASUREMENTS The body of the large handbag measures 17" in diameter from all angles x approximately 4" deep. Each strap of the double handle measures 11.5" from end to end providing for a 5.5" drop.
