Reef Crab Tote | Handwoven Koodai Bag in Cobalt & Orange

A pop of color, with attitude.

The Reef is our most distinctive koodai — a hand-woven cobalt-blue tote with a sun-warm orange crab woven right into the front. It's playful, bold, and unforgettable: the bag people stop to ask you about.

Each piece is woven by hand by artisan partners in South India using flexible koodai wire — a traditional craft material that's lightweight, durable, and water-friendly. Because every bag is made by hand, slight variations in the weave are part of every piece.

Details:

  • Handwoven koodai wire construction
  • Cobalt blue with orange crab motif
  • Sculptural wood top handle
  • Generous tote shape
  • Wipeable, water-friendly
  • Handmade in South India
  • Small batch — limited inventory

Measurements: 15" wide × 13" tall × 3" deep

Styling: The Reef is a statement piece, full stop. Pair with the simplest white tee and jeans, a slip dress, or a swimsuit and sarong — and let the bag do the talking.

Care: Spot clean with a damp cloth. Air dry. Avoid prolonged sun exposure to preserve color.

Made with purpose: Every Tiger Tales purchase supports the artisans who make our pieces. Buy good. Do good. Feel good.
