Looking to inject more summer vibes into your style, nothing beats a woven basket handbag. If you’re looking for a special style, perhaps Loewe’s latest limited edition elephant woven basket bag will catch your eye.
Loewe has repeatedly used elephant motifs in recent years as inspiration for their bags and accessories, with unique designs that are deeply loved by many girls. This year, the brand is collaborating with the wildlife conservation organization Knot On My Planet for the fourth consecutive year, also choosing the elephant motif to release limited edition woven basket bags, with all proceeds going to the Elephant Crisis Fund to support the organization’s conservation work for wild elephants.
This cute and three-dimensional elephant woven basket embodies the brand’s mission to preserve ancient crafts. Handcrafted by artisans from the non-profit organization Samburu Trust in Kenya, it is woven from doum palm fibers and adorned with colorful beads for its two big eyes. This beadwork technique has been passed down through generations and is used for necklaces, headdresses, and jewelry, with vibrant patterns and colors that are well-known symbols of Samburu culture. Different colors and patterns often carry different meanings, forming a rich visual language traditionally used to represent important days and events.
Limited edition elephant woven basket bags are now available at loewe.com and Bergdorf Goodman department store. The collaboration project for this year will also be showcased in a special way at the Bergdorf Goodman department store window display. If you are interested, take a look.
