The bark weave gives the Rijo Bag a firm-yet-flexible structure, sturdy enough for daily use, yet light enough for effortless carry. The natural bark texture feels grounding and earthy, and the bag moves with you rather than against you. It’s a tactile reminder of handwork and natural materials.

Materials & Craft

Each carrier is completely handcrafted by the ancient Kanekes tribe, using slow, low-impact techniques that honour both material and tradition.

Crafted at its own pace, each string of yarn is created through a slow process where the bark is thinly peeled, roasted, and sun-dried over several days before being handtwined and handknitted into shape. Every piece carries subtle variations that reflect the integrity of the process and a deep connection between nature, maker, and object.

Styling Notes

Use the Rijo Bag as an earthy, textured accent, pair with linen or cotton neutrals for a cohesive natural palette. Works equally well with flowing dresses, structured outerwear, or casual pants for day-to-night versatility. The Cedar tone adds warm depth to summer outfits; Naturel offers subtle, raw minimalism for timeless, everyday wear.
