Handbag Culture - purveyors of simple, elegant and timeless handbags introduces the Resort Collection at The California Gift Show, July 22-25, 2011 LA Convention Center South Hall, Booth 1624
Crafted from hand-loomed fibers such as jute, raffia, and buntal, and adorned with eye-catching leather trim and shimmering bead accents, the Resort Collection embodies the chic and laid-back vibe of secluded islands and seaside getaways, making the bags the perfect companion for lounging and relaxation

Using the finest materials nature has to offer such as sustainable acacia wood, cotton, silk, leather and natural fibers, Handbag Culture creations stand out from the rest for their very clean and elegant look. Made individually by hand and produced in limited quantities, the attention put into creating each handbag, clutch, wristlet, shoulder bag and tote is a rare and precious luxury. Transcending fads and seasons, these bags never go out of style.

Striking embellishments make each bag unique. Hand-beaded clasps, eye-catching hardware, different textures and a vibrant color palette transform classic bag silhouettes into chic, modern pieces that turn heads wherever they go.
