EMPOWERMENT THROUGH CRAFT
THE CAPRI
The Capri is a unique handcrafted natural raffia basket that’s perfect for summer days. Each bag offers elegant warm-weather practicality and a storied artisanal heritage.
SOCIALLY-CONSCIOUS CRAFT
SOCIALLY-CONSCIOUS CRAFT
Each Capri bag is handwoven in Madagascar by seasoned female artisans, empowered by an inspiring local social enterprise. Its mission is to not only celebrate their time-honoured weaving and crocheting skills, but through providing what is their sole source of income, they are able to support their families themselves.

LOCALLY HARVESTED NATURAL RAFFIA
LOCALLY HARVESTED NATURAL RAFFIA
The 100% natural raffia leaves used for the baskets are locally sourced, harvested, dried in the sun, and dyed with a high quality, chemical-free dye. With this purist, handbuilt process, each bag is subtly unique, with a placement of sumptuous DeMellier leather to finish.

ANCESTRAL HERITAGE
ANCESTRAL HERITAGE
Environmentally sensitive, tactile works of art, every bag is special. Each basket not only reflects DeMellier’s own characteristic commitment to craftsmanship, but the legacy of generations of ancestral tradition and technique that went into making each and every one.

“With ethical and sustainable craft being such a big part of our DNA, we feel really proud to be able to celebrate the amazing Madagascan women that created our Capri basket bags.”
