Handcrafted, Brilliant Bags from Around the World

Wednesday, November 17, 2010

For those of you who love unusual and extraordinary handmade bags for less than $300 (many are less than $100), this post is for you.

One of my jobs includes working for a company called Novica, and sometimes I come across special items that I feel a need to share!

They are a brilliant team of art lovers who grew such an appreciation for artisan craftsmanship, that they created a portal for the world to access the hidden work of these talented artists throughout the world. 

The partners of Novica personally travel to these villages and handpick the items to sell (which is a factor that I love most about the company). 

They sell all of these bags on their website (www.Novica.com), but many of these items are also sold on eBay for 30% off the regular price.

Their collections include items from Brazil, Bali, Thailand, India, Mexico, Ghana, and many other countries that do not have the appropriate avenues to sell worldwide. 

Since holidays are coming, I couldn’t imagine a more perfect time to share these beautiful bags!  I also included the eBay link so you can check each item out in more detail and learn more about each individual artist.
