Material 

Straw Braid

In the Archetype collection, Kamaro’an collaborated with a Taiwan hat factory with an 80-year-old history. We use the old hat sewing technique for bag making.

The hat factory has a unique technique to web infinite-length straw braid and has a wealth of sewing legacy. We also developed a special sewing method and coating to make the bag strong and durable.

 

Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather

Vegetable-tanned cowhide has a smooth finish while retaining the natural full grain with a unique aspect and touch.

Over time, the leather tanned by vegetables will nourish and evolve, developing a patina.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Kamaro'an?

Kamaro'an is a Taiwanese design brand rooted in the weaving traditions of Taiwan's indigenous Kavalan community. Each piece is handwoven using rattan, leather, and natural fibres by skilled local artisans, preserving a craft that has been practised for generations.

Are Kamaro'an pieces handmade?

Yes. Every Kamaro'an bag and basket is handwoven by artisans, meaning each piece carries natural variations in weave pattern and texture. These variations are not defects - they are marks of authentic handcraft.

What materials are used?

Kamaro'an works with natural rattan, plant fibres, and leather, sourced and processed in ways that respect both the craft tradition and the environment. Specific materials are listed on each product page.

How do I care for a Kamaro'an woven piece?

Wipe clean with a dry or lightly damp cloth. Avoid immersing in water. Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade natural fibres over time. For leather-trimmed pieces, apply a small amount of leather conditioner periodically.

Does buying Kamaro'an support the artisan community?

Yes. Kamaro'an was founded to sustain indigenous weaving traditions by creating a commercial platform for Kavalan artisans. Each purchase directly supports the continuation of this craft and the livelihoods of the weavers.
