WOVEN GRASS PURSES FROM CAMBODIA

**Our new E-commerce website, http://www.stephaniesselections.com/ is ready!!--You can go there now and order online! We have new hats and coinpurses and we look forward to hearing from you! http://www.stephaniesselections.com/ Our new email is contact@stephaniesselections.com


I fell in love with these purses while travelling in Cambodia, I had never seen anything like them. The colors, styles and workmanship are amazing. Women take the grass from the Mekong River and dye the color before weaving large mats (6ft x 8ft) on looms under their homes. All work is done in villages, not a factory, with each village specializing in different steps of production such as dying the grass, weaving, cutting the mats into pieces, sewing the purses together, and making the straps and handles. They are lightweight and sturdy, and each style has it's own characteristics. If you are like me, it will be hard to choose only one; I bought 7 in the market before it dawned on me, "How will I get all these home!?"



Half Moon: The half moon unzips from one side to the other making it so easy to get into. It has 2 phone holders and 1 pen holder sewn into on side, a zipper pocket on the other side and a zippered pocket the length of the purse in the middle. The straps are braided and it tapers toward the top making it easy and comfortable under the arm when carrying.

$48.00

Colors left to right -- Black burlywood; Hot Pink; Turquoise; Red; Green/Brown Strirated






Colors left to right: Burgandy Burlywood; Burgandy Strirated; Lime Green;
Crimson/Black Strirated; Pink/Natural Strirated




The Clamshell: Like the Half Moon, the style also unzips from one side to the other, has 2 phone holders and 1 pen holder sewn into the side, a zippered pocket sewn into the other side and a middle zippered pocket the length of the purse. The straps are braided and it tapers toward the top making it easy and comfortable under the arm when carrying.






$38.00






Colors left to right: Hunter Green; Burgandy Burlywood; Mint green/Natural Burlywood;

The Kim Ang: This purse is just too cute and comes in two sizes, small and medium. It zippers across the top and has two braided handles which are attached by clasped hooks. This feature makes it possible for you to have the shorter handles to carry under your arm, or you may unhook the clasps, putting the ends together to make one longer strap. Also, inside there are 2 phone holders and 1 pen holder sewn into one side and a zipper pocket sewen into the other side.

Sophon (or as I call it, The Bucket Purse)
This purse is for you ladies that just cannot survive each day without a large purse, and there are 3 sizes to choose from; Large, Medium, Small. I stairstepped them down in the picture to show they are about an inch apart in heighth and they are about an two inches bigger around in the bottom surface area. A unique feature to this purse is that it is sewn with a curve in the back to fit the hip and body and they cinch open and closed. Also they have an adjustable strap making it possible to carry on the shoulder or across the body. Inside there is lots of room and 2 phone holders and 1 pen holder sewn into the side.
