Vera Tote | Handwoven Koodai Bag in Black & White

The koodai that goes everywhere.

Woven in a sophisticated black-and-white salt-and-pepper pattern with a carved wood top handle, the Vera is the most versatile bag in our koodai line. It reads as texture, not statement — a true neutral that works year-round, with everything.

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
  • Black & white salt-and-pepper weave
  • Carved wood top handle
  • Structured tote silhouette
  • Wipeable, water-friendly
  • Handmade in South India
  • Small batch — limited inventory

Styling: A genuine wardrobe workhorse. Carry to brunch over white denim, to dinner with a slip dress, on the plane with a linen suit. The black-and-white reads year-round, not just summer.

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.

Help tigers keep their place in the world

Tiger Tales works in collaboration with Dhonk Craft of Ranthambore, India – home of the majestic Bengal Tiger.  Dhonk retrains men and women hailing from hunting tribes with new skills to create an alternate, sustainable means of livelihood for this community.

A portion of every Tiger Tales sale supports these efforts and helps provide a sustainable, long-term solution to prevent poaching and save the tigers.
