ANIMAL TULE BAGS

Handcrafted Tule Animal Bags

Each of these unique handbags is made from tule (bulrush) — a natural fiber that grows around the lakes of southern Mexico. Local artisans carefully cut, dry, and weave the tule by hand, shaping it into the charming animal figures that make every piece truly one of a kind.

This centuries-old technique is now at risk of disappearing, as younger generations leave rural communities and only a few elder artisans remain who still master this delicate craft.

Owning one of these bags means preserving a vanishing tradition and supporting the hands that keep it alive. Each piece is not just a bag — it’s a story, a heritage, and a piece of Mexico’s cultural soul.

Available in limited quantities — once they’re gone, they may never be made again.
