Madagascar
The Shebobo team consists of over 400 artisans that work around the countryside of Madagascar. Each bag is hand dyed and hand loomed using the same traditional weaving techniques learned over 100 years ago. Shebobo was founded in 2011 by Kirsten Schipper in San Francisco, CA. Being a handmade designer herself, she travels to Madagascar, Peru and Guatemala, working with local artisans to create beautiful handcrafts with fair trade and fair wage practices.
