The Round Base Tote
A new everyday shape, made to carry beautifully.

As every Iris bag is handmade, slight variations in shape and measurement are part of its individual character.
Iris is made from cotton cord and shaped by hand using time-intensive artisanal techniques. The spiralling cord texture gives each bag its tactile finish, while the rounded base creates its distinctive architectural form.
Treat your Iris bag gently. Spot clean with a soft cloth, cool water and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid soaking, machine washing, harsh chemicals and direct heat. Reshape carefully while damp and allow it to dry naturally in the shade. Store in a cool, dry place and avoid prolonged contact with perfumes, oils or strongly coloured fabrics.
Each Leila piece is made slowly and thoughtfully by skilled Sri Lankan artisans. Your purchase supports meaningful work for local artisans, communities and families while helping preserve the value of handmade craft.
Orders are prepared with care within 1–3 business days. Delivery within Sri Lanka typically takes 2–5 business days. Eligible items may be returned within 30 days in accordance with our returns policy.
Can Iris be worn on the shoulder?
Yes. Both sizes feature 63.5 cm straps designed for comfortable hand, forearm or shoulder carry.
Which size should I choose?
Choose Small for a lighter, more compact everyday bag. Choose Large when you prefer a roomier silhouette for longer days and more essentials.
Will every Iris bag look exactly the same?
No two handmade pieces are completely identical. Small variations in texture, shape and stitching are natural and make each Iris uniquely yours.
