For ladies who want to add African accessories to their wardrobe, the choices are plentiful.

There are many selections, but one of the nicest choices is the sisal handbag.

Sisal is a kind of plant that yields a stiff fiber which can be utilized for rope, twine, home furnishings, textiles and handbags. It is grown in many parts of Africa, including Tanzania and Kenya. There are large estates in east Africa where sisal is grown and the fiber is decorticated (the leaves of the plant are crushed, and then they are beaten with a rotating wheel to extract the fiber). After this process, the fiber is washed and dried, and then baled and prepared for export. Sisal production in Africa is a great business, and the sisal produced is durable, long-lasting, flexible and easy to dye.

The sisal handbags you will find at YourAfricanClothingShop.com are diverse and beautiful with color and style choices as diverse and unique as our clients themselves. One beautiful African handbag style to consider is the sisal bag with the African map on it. The bag is brown and tan in color and the gorgeous outline of the African continent is displayed on the side.

Another sisal bag is solid white with imprints of cowry shells on the side. The bag is versatile and can be worn with almost any of your African clothing styles, or you can simply wear it with jeans and your favorite t-shirt to show off your African style. The bag is large and will hold all of your necessities.

A nice choice would be a sisal bag. Sisal fabric is woven and heavy-duty, therefore, it stands up to the test of time.
