Know before you buy
Fique is a natural, sustainable fiber derived from the leaves of the Furcraea andina plant, native to the Andean region. It has a slightly textured, organic feel that is durable and sturdy, similar to a high-quality jute or sisal, but it softens slightly with regular use.
Yes, the fique fiber is naturally strong and resilient, making it well-suited for carrying market produce or heavier items. While it is lightweight, the construction is designed to handle the weight of daily essentials without losing its shape.
Because it is made of natural fibers, we recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the bag in water or putting it in the washing machine, as this can compromise the integrity of the natural fibers.
The open-weave nature of natural fiber bags makes them excellent for the beach, as sand typically shakes right through the material. Just be sure to let the bag air out completely if it gets damp from wet towels or swimwear to prevent any moisture buildup.
Each bag is ethically handcrafted in Colombia. By purchasing this tote, you are supporting traditional artisanal techniques and fair labor practices within the local communities where the fique fiber is harvested and woven.
