Potli Handbags for Weddings, Evenings and Everyday
These cover two kinds of days. The small hand-crochet potlis are for weddings and evenings. The bigger totes and purses are for the days when you need to carry more.
The Potlis
Most of the collection is hand-crochet with gota detailing, in silver, gold, champagne and antique finishes. Begum, Phoolwati and Primrose are small enough for an evening and dressed up enough for a wedding. Some have tassels, and some have a gota knot. For more of the technique, see the crochet potli bag page.
When You Need More Room
Floral Charcoal Tote Bag, Holiday Tote Bag and Red Aakar Tote Bag are hand-crochet totes for daytime. Midnight Blooms Bag is a hand-crochet purse with 3D roses. You’ll find more in our crochet tote bag collection.
