Laga handmade handbags are made in Aceh, Indonesia by women who survived the tsunami that took the lives of over 250,000.Laga bags, travel bags and accessories are sewn on pedal driven, non-electric treadle machines with hand-guided embroidery patterns that are indigenous to this area and have been passed down through generations. Each handbag is a unique piece of historical art.
Each handbag is lovingly stitched from nylon polyester fabric with cotton embroidery thread and lined with luxurious silk satin lining and has been given and Indonesian name to depict hope in the wake of the devastation: "Damai" (peace), "Sehat" (healthy), "Percaya" (believe)...
Each handbag sewn and sold brings hope for a better tomorrow.
Laga Handbags was started by Roy van Broekhuizen, whose family fled Indonesia when he was 9 years old, and wife, Louise, also of Indonesian decent.
In Indonesia, Laga Handbags provides a place of peace, refuge and love for victims of disaster who are rebuilding their lives, one handbag at a time.
Roy and Louise do not take a salary from Laga Handbags.
