Description
The Handwoven Straw Beach Tote Bag is a large summer tote in handwoven straw, made for resort, beach and holiday retail. It is a seasonal product, and the way to buy it well is to plan around the season rather than during it.
What this style is for
Straw and rattan totes sell in a concentrated window in most markets, which makes ordering rhythm more important than the unit price. Booking production before the season starts means you are shipping into demand rather than competing for capacity while everyone else orders. Because the tote holds its value across a long summer and photographs well against holiday content, it also suits sellers whose main range is bags and accessories rather than fashion.
Material and construction
Handwoven straw construction. Handweaving introduces natural variation between units, which is part of the appeal but must be specified and agreed so that buyers and their customers know what to expect. Tell us whether you want a natural finish or a dyed one, and we will confirm how consistent the colour can be held across a production run.
Customisation
Logo by a woven or stitched label, a leather-look patch, or a hangtag. Lining, handle material and colour can be specified. Handles can be changed to leather-look or fabric to shift the price point.
Ordering
MOQ 50 pieces. Samples take 3 to 5 days for in-stock constructions, longer where a specific weave or dye is required. Three-year warranty against defects in workmanship and materials.
FAQ
When should I place a summer order? Work backwards from your season and allow for sampling plus 15 to 25 days of production, then add freight. Place the order before the pre-season rush rather than during it.
Will every bag look identical? Handweaving varies. We agree the acceptable range with you before production so there are no surprises on arrival.
Can the handles be leather? Yes.
What is the smallest order? 50 pieces per style, per colour.
