HOW TO CARE FOR CHAGUAR BAGS

Handcrafted chaguar bags are meticulously sewn by skilled artisans using 100% chaguar, a natural fiber known for its exceptional quality and sustainability. With its hand-sewn construction and the natural beauty of chaguar, these handbags express a sense of authenticity and artisanal charm.

But how do you care for Chaguar bags? Do they require maintenance? Chaguar is a natural fiber, and so are its dyes. Humidity can cause the chaguar to stiffen. If it becomes stiff, simply iron the bag to soften the chaguar and restore the product's shape. Do not wash; dry cleaning is recommended.

Our chaguar bags are handmade within the Cooperative of Artisan Women of Argentina, who work manually applying ancestral knowledges. For over 20 years, the Cooperative has been a driving force behind economic development in indigenous communities across Chaco, Formosa, Salta, and Jujuy. These artisans produce lovely and rustic chaguar bags, and they also preserve ancestral knowledge, creating a sustainable and culturally rich legacy.
