Laga handbags are handsewn and embroidered by tsunami survivors, providing them with an income to help rebuild their lives and their community.


In April 2010, Laga Handbags were featured on Oprah. Sales have increased, giving Laga Handbags the funds to help Indonesian women.


It's people like you that are helping us rebuild homes and lives, one handbag at a time. Every purchase helps the tsunami survivors in Indonesia.

rebuilding lives one handbag at a time

Laga handbags are handmade in Aceh, Indonesia by women who survived the tsunami that took the lives of over 285,000 people.

Our handbags are sewn on pedal-driven, non-electric treadle machines. Each bag is embroidered with hand-guided patterns that have been passed through the generations and are indigenous to this area. Each handbag is a unique piece of historical art.

These beautiful handbags have been given Indonesian names that depict hope after the tsunami: “Damai” (peace), “Sehat” (healthy), “Percaya” (believe)...

Each handbag is made from nylon polyester fabric and stitched with nylon polyester thread so your Laga Handbag is water and stain resistant and lined with luxurious silk satin lining.

Creative, authentic and attractive, each handbag sewn and sold provides renewed hope for a better tomorrow.
