Description

This Mogador basket bag from Green Doum is handmade in Morocco from doum palm and genuine leather, with a wide leather handle that has an oval cut-out.

What makes this Mogador basket bag special

A wide leather handle with an oval cut-out makes the carry comfortable, and the tight natural weave holds its shape. It is woven by hand, so the texture of the palm is slightly different on every piece.

Handwoven in Morocco from doum palm and genuine leather

Every Mogador basket bag is handmade in Morocco by local artisans from natural raw materials. The palm is woven by hand and finished with genuine leather details, so small differences in shade and shape are part of the charm. Our story goes back to 1962.

Doum palm is one of the traditional raw materials of Moroccan craftsmanship, alongside date palm leaves and rush. It weaves into a light, natural-looking fabric, and the leather adds strength where the piece is handled.

Weaving baskets from plant fibres is one of the oldest crafts in the world and is found in many cultures; for a general overview, see this page on basket weaving.

The leather is genuine leather: it softens and darkens naturally with use, so your piece gains character over time.

The Mogador basket bag measures 29 × 14 × 22 cm (length × width × height). That makes it a practical everyday size.

How to use your Mogador basket bag

This piece is a roomy everyday bag: use it for work days, errands or weekend outings. It pairs naturally with linen, denim and cotton in any season.

How to care for it

To clean the Mogador basket bag, brush off dust with a soft brush and wipe it with a lightly damp cloth. Let it dry naturally, away from direct sun and heaters. A little leather conditioner now and then keeps the leather supple.
