Artisan's Notes

These exquisite bags are embroidered with a dazzling assortment of powerful symbols, like cranes, phoenixes, and peonies. Cranes symbolize longevity and good luck, phoenixes represent prosperity and renewal, while peonies symbolize love and happiness — take your pick. Each piece is one of a kind and handcrafted from vintage Obi silk from Japan. Every one comes with a chain and/or wrist strap so you can wear it as either a convenient crossbody sling bag, or elegant clutch. Every bag was lovingly crafted by Shirley, the brand's founder, in Malaysia. Comes with a shoulder chain and wrist strap; 27cm (L) x 17cm (H) x 1cm (W).

Why Southeast Asia?

Southeast Asia is home to some of the richest and oldest craft legacies in the world. Dia’s co-founders, who are all Malaysian, realized there were precious products and stories that weren’t getting enough global recognition. Dia is passionate about the region it calls home.
