  • Handwoven in J.P. Nagar, Bangalore by women from Samhati, this heritage Koodai tote blends tradition with everyday function.
  • Crafted from plastic wire, it features sturdy leather straps, optional organisers, and playful personalisation — from your name to your pet’s.
  • Choose from tassels, monograms, or dog & cat charms to make it truly yours.
  • Fits everything from books to market veggies, travel bottles, and café reads.
  • Lightweight, wipeable, and roomy enough for your errands, outings, or airport check-ins.
  • Every bag carries a piece of culture, community, and quiet rebellion — rewoven into your modern life.

This collection brings together the generational craftsmanship of Samhati’s women weavers and Zwende’s signature personalisation and design-led detail.

Samhati—which means “joint effort”—beautifully captures the spirit of this collaboration. Based in and around JP Nagar, the women of Samhati come from low-income households. Many are homemakers or work as domestic helps. Through basket weaving, they’re taking their first steps toward financial independence—and rewriting their own stories with every loop and knot. Through Samhati, these women have found a renewed sense of pride, purpose, and community.

Together, Zwende & Samhati are committed to reviving the koodai craft, a traditional basketry form that demands immense patience, skill, and care. In partnership with Zwende, this legacy takes on a new form—contemporary, customisable bags designed for your everyday life. With leather straps, monogrammed tags, and thoughtful accents, each piece is a celebration of tradition reimagined. We hope these bags find a joyful, lasting place in your life—used, reused, and passed on with love.
