About the Bags: Inside Out exhibition · V&A
Handcrafted from ecologically harvested raffia and leather by women in Ghana, this crossbody bag is produced by Aaks, a company founded by Akosua Afriyie-Kumi. Afriyie-Kumi's goal is to pay homage to her favorite weaving techniques while creating sustainable jobs within Africa. She is connected to every stage of the process, ensuring that the designs maintain the spirit of their ancestral counterparts. Each Aaks Raffia Crossbody Bag takes about seven days to construct.
