JADEtribe
Mini Beach Basket, multi tassel
The mini beach basket from JADEtribe is a smaller version of our most popular beach bag. Handcrafted from hyacinth and adorned with multicolored tassel and pom poms. Inset round handles mirror the playful curvature of this structured bag. Multi-colored, hand-loomed cotton lining keeps valuables free of sand. 10" x 7" x 3"
Inspired Design: JADEtribe provides fair trade wages and steady employment to artisan collectives in Southeast Asia who create modern interpretations of traditional textiles that are hand-loomed and colored with organic dyes. Handwoven hyacinth baskets are lined with new and repurposed, traditional textiles.
About this Maker
JADEtribe
JADEtribe was founded in 2008 after designer Kimberly Hartman made a trip to Southeast Asia and discovered a village of Laotian women weaving remarkable textiles. At fair trade wages and prices, she purchased the textiles from the craftswomen and hired other local artisans to sew the fabric into bags and JADEtribe was born.
Beachy and bohemian, JADEtribe is the true embodiment of fashion with a conscience. Whether it’s a handbag repurposed from hand embroidered baby carrier cloths or organically dyed and hand loomed traditional textiles, each element of JADEtribe is ethically created honoring heritage craft traditions and fair trade practices.
JADEtribe continues to work with artisan collectives in Southeast Asia, providing fair wages and steady employment as these craftswomen create modern interpretations of traditional textiles, using hand looms and organic dyes. JADEtribe also uses repurposed hand embroidered textiles and jewelry to create unique pieces in their collection.
