A one-of-a-kind bucket bag featuring authentic Xilankapu brocade, hand-woven by Tujia artisans in the mountains of Enshi, Hubei.
This bag combines traditional Tujia Xilankapu weaving with modern design. The brocade panel is entirely handmade on a wooden backstrap loom, a craft passed down through over 1,500 years of Tujia culture. No two pieces are exactly alike. The geometric patterns carry cultural meaning, representing elements of nature and daily life in the Enshi highlands. Sturdy, beautiful, and deeply rooted in heritage.
