Chiman Bags artisans
Conceived after visiting the Chiman indigenous communities living in the Amazon region of Bolivia, the Chiman bags project is a dream come true and a meaningful addition to our growing portfolio.
Partnering with Chiman women artisans we aim to provide sustainable economic opportunities and preserve the skills, know-how, and passion they have to weave unique products from natural fibers using an ancient technique, passed down from generation to generation.
