Cayetana
Description
The Cayetana Medium Tote is handcrafted in Ecuador from 100% Toquilla straw, a natural fiber celebrated for its beauty, quality, and centuries-old weaving tradition.
Each bag is made entirely by hand, from the dyeing of the straw to the final weave. The process takes approximately two to three weeks, resulting in a beautifully crafted piece with its own subtle character.
Spacious yet refined, Cayetana is designed to carry your everyday essentials while bringing an effortless touch of Ecuadorian craftsmanship to warm-weather dressing.
Care
Toquilla Straw Hat Care
Your Valdivia hat is handwoven in Ecuador using natural toquilla straw. With proper care, it can be enjoyed for many years.
Handling
Handle your hat by the brim rather than the crown to help maintain its shape.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep flat or in a hat box when not in use.
Water
Avoid exposure to rain, water, and excessive humidity, as moisture may damage the natural fibers and alter the shape of your hat.
Cleaning
Gently remove dust with a soft, dry cloth or soft-bristled brush. Avoid harsh cleaning products.
Natural Variations
Each hat is individually handwoven, making slight variations in color, weave, and texture a natural part of its beauty.
