The Winding Road: Ata Vine Saddle Bag Cross Body

The Winding Road works with artisans in developing countries to help improve their standard of living by providing a fair wage and a safe work place, while providing funding for their children's educations.

Our beautiful Ata Bags are hand crafted by Balinese women working from their homes in the Tenganan Village in Eastern Bali. They are master weavers with skills that have been passed down and perfected over many generations. After the bags are woven, they are dried under the sun for several days, then hung over a fire, the smoke and heat from the fire gives them their golden color and cures them and makes them hard and durable, ensuring they will last a lifetime.
