Welcoming spring, the most popular product during the exhibition is a cross-body bag made of weaved "ate grass" decorated with tassels and pom-poms of various colors. The Indonesian pavilion also features tote bags made of seagrass and clutches made of ikat. Each Everina product highlights the work of women craftsmen in NTT and Bali. The Everina brand is committed to bring Indonesian artisan products to the US market and improve the quality of the craftsmen's well-being.
