Traveller's Wallet
Stay organized in style. This wallet is handmade and features a zip‑around closure with multiple internal compartments. Each one is hand‑stitched by indigenous Hmong women in Vietnam’s Lao Cai Province using techniques passed down through generations. Intricate embroidery and vibrant hues reflect their cultural stories, while the soft, durable fabric holds up to everyday use. The colorful embroidery celebrates cultural heritage, and the sturdy construction ensures long‑lasting use. Use it on its own as a clutch or tuck it in your bag; every purchase helps provide sustainable livelihoods for the artisans who crafted it.
Inside our multi-compartment wallets are four roomy compartments, a smaller pocket and a zip section for coins—perfect for cash, cards and receipts.
Prefer simplicity? Our single‑compartment Traveler’s Pouch offers the same profile and vibrant embroidery but with one spacious interior. The three‑sided zip opens wide to hold a phone, cosmetics or passports, making it a versatile accessory for travel or everyday life.
About the Artisans
The Hmong people are an indigenous community in the mountainous regions of Vietnam, Laos, China, and Thailand. Our Hmong artisans in Lao Cai Province practice an ancient embroidery tradition called paj ntaub, or “flower cloth.” These textiles are much more than decoration – each stitch is a symbol. Motifs like the elephant’s foot, snail, and mountain represent family, growth and stability, while the trident offers spiritual protection. Historically, when the Hmong’s written language was suppressed, women encoded their stories and ancestry into this embroidery, turning garments into “coded clothing”. Today they still hand‑embroider, tie‑dye and batik every piece, a process that can take days.
Your purchase helps preserve this cultural heritage and provides fair wages for the women who create our pillow covers, bed runners, tapestries and apparel. By choosing Hmong handmade goods, you’re bringing a piece of Vietnam’s living history into your home and supporting sustainable livelihoods.
