A collection of exceptional quality bags
Each Oqena bag is handmade from natural materials such as wild cotton, mother-of-pearl buttons and natural raffia from Madagascar. Known for its exceptional strength and great flexibility, raffia is a plant fiber prized by artisans for the creation of handicrafts. Our artisans on the island work every day with passion to enhance the raffia of their island and pay tribute to it.
Craftsmanship at the service of luxury
Oqena raffia bags are distinguished by their high-quality finishes and elaborate designs. Each precisely tightened mesh gives our bags remarkable strength. Whether 100% raffia bags or two-material models combining raffia and cotton, our high-end products highlight the natural and noble materials that compose them. The exceptional quality of our bags is reflected in every detail, from natural or colored cotton to sophisticated raffia meshes, including shades of natural and sunny colors.
Unlike some luxury bag designers who neglect comfort, we make sure to combine refinement and practicality. From specially designed interior pockets to hold your small essentials to ingenious magnetic snap closure systems that allow you to adapt the bag's capacity to your needs, each Oqena product is the result of conscientious work aimed at combining luxury and comfort.
