Velvet Clutch Bag W/Wrist Strap - Tjukurrpa Design

This velvet clutch bag with wrist strap is a cross cultural project, designed in Australia and handmade in Kashmir.

The design is applied to the velvet by Kashida, one of the oldest Kashmiri handicrafts. It is applied to the velvet by hand with the help of a small "aari" hand tool similar to a crochet hook. The clutch bag contains bright satin lining, with a small zipper pocket inside for smaller items, and a wrist strap to leave you hands free. 

This design is owned by Willie Ngungutjara Wilson.

Willie's painting is of his country in the remote north western South Australia on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara/Yankunytjatjara Lands. This painting describes Tjurkurrpa - creation story. There are two wati - men sitting either side of the rockhole in the middle of the painting
