These beautiful leather clutch bags are all individually embroidered with the art of an Australian Aboriginal artist, through a cross cultural project representing both Aboriginal and Kashmiri artists using the handicraft - Kashida, that Kashmiris have developed over many generations. Featuring bright fabric lining, a zip pocket inside and a wrist strap to leave your hands free. Big enough to fit your phone and purse, but still small and convenient.

Jilamara is by Aboriginal artist Josette Papajua. During Ceremony on the Tiwi Islands a series of "Yoi", dances are performed, some are totemic (matrilineal) and others act out newly composed songs. Participants are painted with turtiyanginari (natural ochres) transforming the dancers and protecting them against mapurtiti (spirits). These designs are collectively called Jilamara.
