Senegalese Handbags

These all leather handbag beauties are from the country of Senegal. Each well crafted, usable bag has been decorated with cowry shell accents which surround a circular African image drawn upon a bleached leather facing. Although no longer used as currency in Africa; cowry shells still denote prestige and wealth. The hand drawn scenes featured are of the revered elephant, Ashanti Gyenyame symbol and village huts. The bags are sturdy and are featured in fun, attractive shapes! Please scroll down to view a close up of each item. The price is for one bag.
