Handcrafted Raffia Bags and Accessories from Madagascar – Atelier Sakamena

Welcome to SAKAMENA, the workshop dedicated to creating unique raffia bags and accessories, all handcrafted in Madagascar. For over 20 years, Valérie, the founder of the brand, has collaborated with Malagasy artisans whose ancestral skills transform raffia fiber into works of art. Our collection offers a wide range of raffia bags, clutches, hats, and cushions, combining elegance, practicality, and authenticity.

Raffia Craftsmanship at the Heart of Our Identity

Raffia, a natural fiber from the Raffia farinifera palm, is at the center of our creations. This eco-friendly and renewable material grows in the tropical regions of Madagascar. The leaves, which can reach up to 20 meters in length, are harvested, cut, and then transformed into supple fibers. These fibers are carefully sorted, rinsed, dried, and sometimes dyed using traditional techniques. Thanks to this process, each raffia bag or accessory we offer is a unique piece, reflecting the talent of our artisans.

Ethical and Responsible Creations

At SAKAMENA, we value a production approach that respects both the environment and people. All our raffia bags and accessories are handmade, honoring local traditions and following an ethical process. We prioritize short supply chains and fair compensation for artisans, supporting the local economy and preserving Malagasy craftsmanship.
