About US

At Sokona, we believe that fashion should be more than style—it should be a story. Our journey began with a passion for authentic craftsmanship and a commitment to making fashion both ethical and meaningful.

We partner directly with skilled artisans across Africa, many of them women who weave as a way to support their families and preserve cultural traditions. Each handbag is carefully crafted by hand using natural, sustainable materials like raffia, sisal, and palm leaves. The result is not just a bag, but a unique work of art—durable, eco-friendly, and infused with heritage.

When you carry one of our handbags, you carry more than an accessory. You carry a tradition passed down through generations, a livelihood sustained through fair trade, and a story of empowerment. Every purchase helps create opportunities, preserve artistry, and build stronger communities.

We invite you to join us in weaving change—one bag, one artisan, one story at a time.

Our Promise:

• Ethical sourcing and fair trade practices

• Eco-friendly, sustainable materials

• Unique designs rooted in cultural heritage

• A commitment to empowering artisan communities

Because true style is timeless—and so are the hands that weave it.
