Le Nattier

The Le Tanneur raffia bag combines traditional craftsmanship with a commitment to sustainability.

Le Tanneur has been envisioning and designing leather creations that combine tradition and contemporary style for over 120 years. As a brand committed to preserving skills and expertise and using the finest materials, it offers leather creations that are durable, elegant, and made to last for years to come. With Le Nattier, Le Tanneur is
showcasing traditional Madagascan expertise, which specialises in plaiting raffia, a material made from wilted palm leaves. 

The raffia bag for women: naturally elegant. 

The raffia and leather tote bag from Le Tanneur is designed for women to carry and use daily. It is as practical for
work as it is for the beach. Made using weaving techniques handed down from generation to generation by Malagasy craftswomen, this piece has a natural solidity and a unique elegance and is the result of a happy marriage between
Malagasy traditions and the expertise of a master leatherworker. In addition to the two types of weave, classic and banded, there are two solid semi-vegetable
leather handles and an insert marked Le Tanneur. 

The Le Tanneur raffia tote bag, for a responsible and inclusive future

The combination of leather and raffia illustrates Le Tanneur's desire to work with different materials and different skills. This raffia and leather tote bag is the proud representative of our "L'Art du savoir" capsule, which celebrates craftsmanship. In this case, we celebrate Malagasy craftswomen by promoting their unique local
skills and expertise and encouraging their social integration and emancipation. 

A bag made in natural raffia and smooth
vegetable-tanned leather, and designed to last

Handmade in Madagascar by women nicknamed
"fairy fingers", this raffia tote bag is made from a 100% natural, local material. As with leather, each piece is unique, with irregularities in weave and colour that simply relect the craftsmanship involved. Each Le Nattier
Raphia bag is a true work of art, reflecting the rich heritage of this country, which now exports its know-how all over the world.
