PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Elegant Craft in Every Detail: Pimwara Pearl Handle Ladies Straw Bag

The Pimwara Pearl Handle Ladies Straw Bag is an elegant compact piece created to celebrate refinement through simple design. Its name, “Pimwara,” means “gentle woman” in Thai—an ideal fit for such a graceful accessory. The combination of pearl, straw, and ribbon brings together softness, structure, and femininity. Whether it’s styled for an occasion or used to dress up a casual look, this bag offers quiet sophistication with standout appeal.

Artisan Weaving from Northern Thailand

This unique piece is handcrafted in Phayao by women artisans who use traditional coiling methods to create a strong and flexible straw frame. Each bag takes hours to shape and assemble. The water hyacinth straw is dried, softened, and coiled by hand, making every bag a little different. Local materials and techniques preserve the cultural roots of Thai weaving. The Pimwara Straw Bag represents both beauty and tradition, showing what’s possible when old-world craftsmanship meets modern style.

Pearl Handle That Defines the Design

A semicircular handle made from smooth faux pearls gives the bag its refined signature. It sits comfortably in the hand and adds a sculptural, jewellery-like detail. This feature transforms the Pimwara Pearl Handle Straw Bag from a casual tote into something elevated and occasion-ready. It contrasts softly with the straw and mirrors the white ribbon perfectly. Customers love the way this handle captures light and adds elegance without being flashy or fragile.

Compact Shape That Feels Feminine and Fresh

The curved base and flared sides give this bag its petal-like form. It holds shape easily and rests upright when set down. This silhouette works well with both formal and relaxed outfits, providing just enough presence to stand out. Despite its petite look, the ladies straw bag is roomy enough for essentials like a phone, lipstick, mirror, and keys. It’s the type of bag that feels sculptural, not oversized—refined in scale, yet rich in detail.

Inner Cotton Pouch for Everyday Security

Inside the straw shell is a cotton drawstring lining that keeps your belongings safely tucked away. The gathered pouch is soft to the touch and adds an extra layer of protection without bulk. This practical feature ensures the Pimwara Ladies Straw Bag isn’t just stylish—it’s ready for real use. Whether you’re attending a ceremony or walking around town, you’ll feel confident that your essentials stay secure and easily accessible.

Ribbon Detailing for Balanced Texture

White ribbons wrap through the sides and tie near the base for a decorative and structural effect. They provide contrast to the natural straw while connecting visually with the handle and lining. The fabric softens the feel of the bag and adds a clean, crisp element to its overall look. Every detail—from ribbon to straw loop—is added by hand. This level of care makes the Pimwara Pearl Straw Bag feel more like a keepsake than an accessory.

Why Customers Choose This Bag Again and Again

Many buyers select this piece for weddings, engagement parties, or gifting. They’re drawn to its elegance, compact size, and striking handle. The Pimwara Pearl Handle Ladies Straw Bag feels different from standard occasion bags—it’s warm, textured, and personal. It stands out in photos without being distracting. For customers who want something handmade, luxurious, and meaningful, this bag offers all three in one beautiful package.

Designed for Weddings, Tea Parties, and Celebrations

This bag belongs at the table, on the dancefloor, or resting beside a garden bench. Its timeless charm makes it suitable for a range of events—from bridal showers to summer holidays. The blend of pearl and straw suits both daytime and early evening settings. Many customers have chosen it as a bridesmaid gift or a clutch alternative. It adds a thoughtful, artisan-crafted touch to every occasion.

Fits in Our Small & Mini Straw Collection

Although it’s full of style, this bag falls neatly into our Small & Mini Straw Bags range. It’s compact, lightweight, and easy to carry throughout the day. The short pearl handle works for handheld moments, while the crossbody chain provides another option for hands-free use. Whether you’re travelling light or accessorising a statement dress, this mini bag packs impact into a refined silhouette.

Eco-Friendly and Biodegradable Straw Weave

Water hyacinth is one of Thailand’s most eco-friendly plants. Harvesting it supports local waterways and provides sustainable material for artisan goods. The Pimwara Straw Bag uses only biodegradable, non-toxic materials with no synthetic blends. Every piece celebrates Thai natural resources while helping reduce environmental harm. It’s a bag you can feel good about wearing—in every sense.

Pairs Easily with Neutrals, White, and Pastels

The natural tones of the straw, paired with white accents, make this a versatile styling piece. It matches well with cream, soft pink, powder blue, and bridal white. Whether paired with a maxi dress or linen trousers, the pearl handle straw bag adds refinement. Its palette and textures make it easy to integrate into spring and summer wardrobes. Even better, it never feels like it’s trying too hard.

Customise with Colour or Embellishment Options

Would you like a different ribbon colour or custom tag? We can personalise this bag for events, weddings, or gifts. Choose from multiple ribbon shades or request initial embroidery. Custom orders take 14 to 21 days and carry a small fee depending on your request. These made-to-order options help make the Pimwara Straw Bag even more personal, turning it into a one-of-a-kind piece you’ll treasure.

Practical and Elegant Travel Companion

This ladies straw bag is great for holiday wear. Light in weight and easy to pack, it works as both an accessory and a travel piece. The shape allows it to rest easily on flat surfaces, while the lining keeps valuables organised during your trip. Whether heading to a beach resort or a country estate, the Pimwara Pearl Handle Ladies Straw Bag adds polish without taking up space.

Caring for Your Straw and Pearl Bag

To preserve your bag’s shape and finish, store it in a cool, dry space away from direct sunlight. Use a soft cloth to clean the pearl handle and straw surface. Avoid exposing it to rain or heavy weight. The cotton lining can be hand-washed if needed. With minimal care, your Pimwara Straw Tote will remain elegant season after season.

SHIPPING & RETURNS

Worldwide Shipping for the Pimwara Bag

Your Pimwara Pearl Handle Ladies Straw Bag is delivered globally via EMS Thailand World Airfreight. This courier service is known for secure, trackable international delivery. Whether you’re in Europe, the United States, Australia, or Asia, EMS provides reliable coverage to most major destinations. Once dispatched, you’ll receive a personal tracking number so you can monitor your parcel’s journey from Thailand to your door. We don’t hide shipping costs inside the product price. You only pay what EMS charges us, which is especially helpful for customers ordering multiple bags within the same parcel weight range.

From Village Weaver to Central Dispatch

Each Pimwara bag is handmade by our artisan communities located across Thailand—from the northern hills of Chiang Mai to the southern villages of Phatthalung. Once the bag is woven, shaped, and the pearl handle is secured, it’s sent to our dispatch hub in Nakhon Sawan. This central hub ensures every outgoing parcel is professionally packed and quality checked before flying out via EMS. This national process helps us manage product integrity, uphold artisan standards, and deliver efficient worldwide service.

Inspected, Photographed, and Carefully Packed

Before we send your Pimwara bag, it undergoes a complete visual inspection. Our head weavers confirm that the pearl handle, straw structure, and stitching are all perfect. We take photos and video of the bag to record its condition before wrapping it in a white cotton drawstring storage pouch. This eco-friendly pouch protects the bag during transit and gives you a reusable cover for safe long-term storage. We do not use plastic fillers, bubble wrap, or wasteful packaging.

Estimated EMS Transit Times

EMS delivery times begin only after the parcel is dispatched. These are current average estimates:

Thailand: 1 to 3 business days
Asia-Pacific: 3 to 5 business days
Europe and UK: 4 to 9 business days
North America: 5 to 7 business days
Oceania: 4 to 6 business days
South America: 9 to 11 business days
This estimate does not include production time for customised or made-to-order items. Customs clearance may occasionally cause minor delays.

Handmade and Made to Order Timeline

If you request a personalised or custom-coloured version of the Pimwara bag, please allow 14 to 21 business days for our artisans to complete it. Custom colours, embroidery, or bespoke designs take time and skill. Once your bag is ready, we’ll notify you, send it to our dispatch hub, and ship it out using EMS with full tracking. Orders without customisation are shipped within 3 business days.

Live Tracking from Start to Finish

As soon as your Pimwara bag is dispatched, we’ll email you a tracking number. This allows you to follow the bag via the EMS website or your local postal service once it enters your country. If you do not receive your tracking number within 24 hours of shipment, please check your spam folder or reach out to us directly.

Local Postal Delivery After EMS Transfer

Once your bag reaches your country, EMS will transfer the parcel to your national postal service. Delivery times can vary slightly depending on your region, but most orders are completed smoothly. While we don’t control the final-mile delivery, our team is happy to support you with updates or queries if your tracking stalls or local delivery is delayed.

Customs Fees and Import Charges

Many of our customers receive their Pimwara bag without paying any customs duties. However, this varies by country. If your national customs agency applies VAT, import taxes, or handling fees, those will be your responsibility. We do not include duties in our bag or shipping prices. That said, most parcels are classified as straw accessories and pass through with minimal or no charges.

Sustainable and Elegant Packaging

We ship every Pimwara bag in a white cotton storage pouch, placed inside protective cardboard transit packaging. We’ve eliminated plastic from our shipping materials to keep your order eco-friendly. The drawstring pouch is breathable and stylish, ideal for protecting your bag while travelling or storing it at home.

Delays Caused by External Factors

Although rare, delays can happen due to customs inspections, holiday backlogs, or courier service issues. If your Pimwara bag is delayed, we’ll continue to monitor your tracking and provide assistance until it is delivered. We aim to deliver every bag promptly, but we remain flexible and responsive when external issues arise.

Be Sure to Check Your Address

Please make sure your delivery address is accurate before finalising your purchase. If the bag is returned to us due to an incorrect or incomplete address, we can resend it—but you will need to cover the reshipping cost. Original shipping costs are not refundable in such cases. Include full postal codes, apartment numbers, and contact numbers when placing your order.

Returned Parcels and Re-Dispatch Options

If your Pimwara bag is returned to our Thai hub for any reason, we’ll get in touch to discuss resending. You can choose to pay the EMS shipping fee again and have the parcel resent, or we can cancel the order and refund the bag’s cost. The product must arrive back in unused condition. We don’t refund the original shipping cost unless the return was caused by an error on our part.

Why We Don’t Inflate Prices

Some brands include shipping in the product cost, meaning customers unknowingly pay more. We avoid this. EMS charges a fixed rate up to 1kg, so a single Pimwara bag or two to three small bags can often ship for the same cost. We charge only what we pay—no margin, no bundling. This approach rewards customers who order more and gives everyone a transparent price.

What You Pay at Checkout

At checkout, you’ll see the real EMS shipping cost based on your region. We never add packaging fees, fulfilment charges, or hidden extras. Your payment covers the bag, EMS postage, and all handling by our team. Everything else—including photos, inspection, and wrapping—is included in the standard product price.

Returns Policy for the Pimwara Bag

Every Pimwara bag is checked before it leaves us, but if you find damage on arrival, please notify us within 48 hours. Share photos or video so we can assess the issue. If verified, we’ll offer a full refund or replacement. If you wish to return your bag for non-fault reasons, you have 14 days. The bag must be returned to our Nakhon Sawan hub using a tracked service. You’ll need to share the tracking number with us. Once received and inspected, we’ll refund the product cost. Shipping charges are not refundable unless the return is due to damage.

ORDERING INFORMATION

OUR FOUNDATION

The Pimwara Bag That Gives Back

The Pimwara Pearl Handle Ladies Straw Bag is not just a fashion accessory—it’s a meaningful contribution to local Thai families. With each purchase, 15% of the sale goes directly back to the community that created it. This support provides essential aid to the families who make these bags, helping them cover everyday needs like school fees, medical bills, or housing repairs. So, when you purchase the Pimwara bag, you’re not just adding a unique, stylish piece to your wardrobe—you’re helping sustain the lives of hardworking artisans and their families.

Supporting Families in Artisan Villages

We prioritize giving back to the families in the villages where the Pimwara bag is made. This includes the weavers, their children, and other local families who may be involved in the production process. The 15% return from each bag sale is distributed to these families in a way that directly supports their daily lives. This could include funding for education, emergency relief, or even simple things like food or transportation. Our approach is local and personal, ensuring that each contribution makes an immediate and meaningful impact.

Five Regions, One Goal

The Pimwara bag is the result of skilled craftsmanship from five different provinces in Thailand: Phayao, Nakhon Sawan, Phatthalung, Chiang Mai, and Nakhon Si Thammarat. These regions each contribute their own expertise and traditions to the weaving process, making the bag a true reflection of Thailand’s diverse craftsmanship. The 15% return from each sale is then shared with these communities, ensuring that the benefits are felt in the very regions that produced the bag. This collaborative effort allows us to support multiple villages and strengthen the local economy.

Helping Families in Crisis

Life in rural villages can be unpredictable, and sudden crises such as illness, accidents, or natural disasters can place a huge financial burden on families. That’s where the 15% return from each Pimwara bag sale comes in. We use these funds to provide quick and effective assistance when it’s most needed. Whether it’s helping with medical expenses, repairing homes after a storm, or covering transport costs for emergencies, we ensure that the support reaches the families without delay. This fast response helps reduce stress and brings relief in times of need.

Ensuring Education for Local Children

For many families in our weaving villages, education is one of the most important investments for the future, but school fees, uniforms, and other costs can be prohibitive. That’s why part of the return from each Pimwara bag sale goes directly toward supporting local children’s education. These funds help cover everything from school supplies to exam fees, ensuring that children from weaving families don’t miss out on education due to financial constraints. By helping keep kids in school, we’re investing in a brighter future for these communities.

Training and Empowering the Next Generation

The Pimwara bag is not just about preserving traditional weaving techniques—it’s also about empowering the next generation. We use part of the 15% return to fund training programs for young women who are interested in learning the art of weaving. These programs provide apprenticeships, where new weavers learn directly from skilled artisans. The training ensures that these young women have the opportunity to support themselves and their families while preserving a craft that has been passed down for generations. Every Pimwara bag sold helps create job opportunities for young women in rural Thailand.

Recognizing the Community’s Hard Work

Creating the Pimwara bag is a community effort. While one artisan may take credit for the final product, many others contribute in less visible ways. Whether it’s providing raw materials, helping with transportation, or assisting with final touches, the whole community plays a role in making each bag. The 15% return from each sale helps recognize and reward these contributions, ensuring that everyone who has a hand in creating the bag is appreciated. It’s a small way to give back to the people who help make each piece a reality.

A Seamless Giving Model

When you buy a Pimwara bag, you don’t need to worry about making an extra donation. The 15% return is automatically included in the price, so all the giving is built into the purchase. This means you don’t have to take any extra steps. Every time you buy the bag, a portion of the sale goes directly to the families who made it. It’s a simple, seamless system that ensures your contribution is made with every purchase, without requiring anything extra from you.

Quick Impact, Direct Results

The beauty of the Pimwara bag’s giving model is that the impact is felt quickly. The funds from each sale are distributed promptly to ensure families receive support when they need it most. Whether it’s helping a child get school supplies, covering unexpected medical expenses, or supporting a family through a difficult time, the support is immediate and tailored to the needs of the community. Every purchase makes a difference, and the results are seen in the lives of the families who benefit.

Rooted in Thai Values of Giving

The act of giving is deeply ingrained in Thai culture. Whether from a Buddhist or Christian perspective, the concept of supporting others in their time of need is a core value. The Pimwara bag’s giving model reflects this by ensuring that 15% of each sale goes to support local families in a way that aligns with traditional values. Whether it’s seen as a form of merit, grace, or stewardship, the giving is done with respect for the local traditions and customs. It’s a way of supporting the community while respecting the beliefs that guide their lives.
