Founder Trudy McConnell says "it is important for Dewi to participate at the Miami Beach Gift Show so the international attendees can see the beautiful handbags carved out of exotic woods and woven in ancient South Seas designs into unique handbags". "We are bringing original museum quality pieces of wearable art to the Miami Beach Scene at reasonable prices," says McConnell.
Our customers are frequently asked where they bought their Dewi handbags as they stand out ion the street or in a crowded room. Trudy carefully works on new design that can translate into the ancient Balinese wood carving techniques and then combines the carving with historical woven designs that appeal to the American market. Each piece takes 2-3 weeks for the Artisans to weave and carve and is eco-friendly. Next it is smoked over coconut husks and honey till the handbag reaches a rich honey color.
About Dewi Handbags
Dewi Handbags (http://www.dewicollection.com) was formed to provide income for Master Bali Artisans and their families during the difficult times after the Bali bombings when the island's main tourist industry was at an all time low. The outcome has been a great deal more with children remaining in school, and Artisans staying in their villages preserving rural village culture and ancient designs. Best of all, are the personal relationships made with our talented extended families. Dewi is committed to improving the quality of life for our Master Artisans and the education of their children.
