loewe basket bag
Few accessories capture the spirit of warm-weather dressing quite like the Loewe Basket Bag, a handwoven raffia silhouette finished with the house's signature leather trims and Anagram patch. Born from Loewe's Spanish heritage of artisanal leatherwork, the design pairs rustic, sun-dried craftsmanship with quiet modern polish, equally at home on the coast or in the city. Each piece celebrates the tactile beauty and considered detail that define the maison's accessories. Explore the Loewe Basket Bag alongside the wider edit of Loewe bags at MARAIS.
The Story Behind Loewe
Founded in Madrid in 1846, Loewe is one of the world's oldest luxury houses, built on a deep tradition of Spanish leather craftsmanship. For more than a century and a half, the maison has been celebrated for its expert artisanship and refined sensibility, qualities that came into sharp contemporary focus under Jonathan Anderson, creative director from 2013, who reframed the house as a meeting point between heritage craft and modern culture. That balance of artistry and ease runs through the entire Loewe for Women collection.
An Icon of Warm-Weather Dressing
The Loewe Basket Bag has become a defining summer accessory, its trapezoidal, handwoven form inspired by the palm-leaf baskets of the Mediterranean and North Africa. Crafted from raffia and finished with smooth calf-leather handles and the recognisable Anagram patch, it is the rare piece that feels both relaxed and unmistakably luxurious. Those calf-leather handles can be swapped or extended with one of our bag straps, lending the basket a fresh silhouette from one outing to the next. Carried from the beach to the boulevard, it has become a fixture of the warm-weather wardrobe and a natural companion to the broader edit of Loewe bags. Those drawn to its easy, sculptural appeal often find the same spirit in the Lemaire Croissant bag, another study in relaxed, architectural form.
Loewe for Every Wardrobe
Beyond its accessories, Loewe brings the same considered craft to ready-to-wear and footwear for every wardrobe. The Loewe for Men range carries that artisanal spirit into everyday pieces, while the women's offering spans clothing, shoes and bags designed to be worn season after season. Whether you favour a statement woven tote or a more understated everyday style, the collection rewards a love of texture, colour and quiet detail. For year-round carry, the supple, knotted LOEWE Hammock bag and the softly pleated LOEWE Pebble bucket bag extend that same craft beyond the warmer months.
