My journey with Isleande started in 2017, inspired by an unusually hot summer in Helsinki. After struggling to find comfortable and versatile pieces for my little ones, I found myself overwhelmed by the abundance of loud prints and synthetic textures – completely unsuited for sweltering temperatures. With this in mind, I set out to create a children’s brand that celebrates my own Caribbean heritage and also reflects my love for Nordic – especially Finnish – way of life.
A year later Isleande was founded. Starting with our signature styles the Naantali and Nagu, our mission is to create soft yet sustainable children's clothing with a focus on timeless pieces that are inspired by Nordic and Caribbean summers. Each piece is meant to be lived in and passed on – for little ones to explore the joys of recreational living, and for parents who want to pass on their way of life.

Handwoven by Malagasy artisans, the Felana tote is created from raffia, a natural, breathable fibre derived from the raffia palm native to Madagascar. In this size it takes a weaver 2 days to create this gorgeous bag. The lean shape makes a light and easy choice for a shopper, while the pineapple crochet stitch adds a touch of whimsy.
Each bag takes a weaver approximately 2 days to create. Due to the hand made qualities, there may be slight differences between pieces.
We recommend to keep your bag dry. Spot clean with warm water when necessary.
44cm x 40cm x 1cm
100% Raffia
