StrawStudios : Straw Studios designs, produces and wholesales a large selection of handmade bags primarily made from natural materials. We have the largest group of artisans in the world specializing in this form of art and a mature and sophisticated network of studios and facilities in both the U.S. and China. This unique form of arts and crafts which originated in Northern China can be traced back hundreds of years, having been passed on from generation to generation. After being introduced to the United States of America it became an instant success. Our artisans and designers develop hundreds of new styles each year and only the best are incorporated into our Straw Studios line.
