thick hemp weave ==> ETERNITY <== Endless knot handbag

This is a great hemp handbag made in the himalayan kingdom of Nepal. The gentleman who made it for me is an excellent tailor whom I had the pleasure of meeting on my overland travels throughout asia. Both the hemp material, and the workmanship are of excellent quality. The inside of the purse and the strap are lined for a soft feel, and all of the seams are well stitched for maximum durability and long lasting use. This particular style is quite simple - there is one large main pouch with a second zippered(1) pocket in front of it. The embroidered flap covers them both and secures shut with a wooden bobble. This handbag style measures approximately 9.5" wide x 9.5" high, with the strap being just under 50" long.

The embroidery is beautiful! It is the Buddhist syllable, Shrivasta...the Tibetan knot of Eternity. The knot symbolizes the endless cycle of life, death, and rebirth. The knot has no beginning and no end, only continuity. The eternity knot is someteimes also used used to illustrate such concepts as the endless suffering that is existence, unending luck, or eternal love.
