Experience the beauty of traditional craftsmanship with our Khokho Collection Shweshwe Cosmetic Bag. Constructed from natural printed Shweshwe cotton, a fabric rooted in the rich traditions of the eSwatini community, these pouches are locally created with care.

Featuring a convenient size of 8" x 7", this cosmetic bag is designed with a leather tab and a sturdy metal zipper for secure closure. It is made from 100% cotton, with a soft and durable cotton 80/20 lining.

Discover the passion behind our products as we introduce you to the makers. Khokho handbags embody a fusion of innovation, design, and traditional artisan techniques. Philippa Thorne, a designer and social entrepreneur educated at Central Saint Martins, partnered with handbag designer Sapna Shah and master weaver and artisan trainer Zinhle Vilakati to bring Khokho to life. This collaboration has resulted in a high-end handbag collection that beautifully combines natural fibers, such as the indigenous Swazi 'lutindzi' grass, with exquisite leather craftsmanship, creating a contemporary and signature look.

Embrace the allure of heritage and modernity with our Khokho Collection Shweshwe Cosmetic Bag. Own a piece that honors tradition while exuding contemporary elegance.
