Rattan Bucket Bag with Gold Chain
Rattan Bucket Bag with Gold Chain

This is the rattan bag that works as a daily bag, not just a statement piece you carry to dinner.
Most rattan bags are flat — clutches, envelope shapes, slim silhouettes built for an evening's essentials and not much else. The bucket shape changes the math. Five inches of depth gives you real interior volume, and the structured rattan walls keep the bag holding its form instead of collapsing around whatever's inside. Phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, lipstick, a small water bottle, a book — in, without cramming.
It's handcrafted from natural rattan in a tight, refined weave, with the warmth, texture, and small color variations that only come from a natural material. No two are quite identical.
Three ways to carry it
- By the top handle — the classic. It sits comfortably in the hand and hangs straight at your side, which suits brunch, shopping, and meetings that don't involve a laptop
- Crossbody on the gold chain — clip the chain on and go hands-free. The gold hardware dresses it up, and crossbody keeps it secure in a crowd or on a dance floor
- Over the shoulder — chain on, draped, relaxed. This is the farmers-market-with-a-coffee mode
The chain detaches completely, so it's genuinely two bags depending on your morning.
Where you'll take it
Everyday. Errands, coffee runs, lunch, weekend shopping. It holds a full day out, and natural rattan makes even a plain outfit look considered.
Travel and resort. It photographs beautifully against water, stone, and greenery, and it reads as something found in a Mediterranean boutique rather than ordered online. Our resort accessories guide and beach vacation packing list cover what to carry with it.
Weddings and garden parties. Outdoor ceremonies, rehearsal dinners, engagement parties. The gold chain dresses it, the rattan keeps it from feeling formal, and the size means you're not carrying a second bag. See our summer wedding guest accessories and garden party accessories.
Autumn, too. Rattan against a camel coat or a chunky knit reads as deliberate rather than out of season. Our post on transitioning accessories from summer to fall makes the case.
Style it with
Rattan is the neutral with personality — it works with everything without disappearing. Black is the strongest pairing: the natural fiber pops against dark fabric and the gold chain picks up gold jewelry. White, cream, navy, coral, sage, denim, and bold prints all work.
Gold earrings are the natural partner, since the warm tones echo the chain — the Gold Starfish & Shell Earrings ($78) lean coastal, or keep it simple with the Gold Bow Stud Earrings ($58). Tie a Coastal Print Twilly Scarf ($28.50) around the handle to add color, or add a Wide Brim Straw Sun Hat ($128) for the full warm-weather set.
More from the rattan family
The Rattan Crossbody Clutch with Gold Chain ($278) is the other roomy one — a wide crescent shape with a turn-lock flap that tucks under the arm. The Rattan Shell Bag with Pearl Handle ($198) is the sculptural one. The Rattan Clutch Bag with Ivory Ribbon Handles ($258) is the softer, romantic option, and the Rattan & Woven Crossbody Purse in Tan ($158) is the everyday small bag. For a different weave entirely, try the Navy Woven Crescent Bag ($158).

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the Rattan Bucket Bag hold?
Enough for a full day out. At 10"L × 5"D × 7"H the depth is what matters — phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, lipstick, and a small water bottle or paperback fit without stacking on top of each other.
Is the gold chain detachable?
Yes. Take it off and carry it by the top handle for a structured, classic look. Clip it on for crossbody or shoulder. Three carries from one bag.
What is it made of?
The body is handcrafted natural rattan in a tight weave, with a cotton-lined interior, a smooth top handle, and gold-tone chain hardware. Because rattan is a natural material, the color and grain vary slightly from bag to bag.
How is this different from the Rattan Crossbody Clutch?
Both are handcrafted rattan with a detachable gold chain, and both hold more than a typical rattan bag. The difference is shape. This bucket stands upright with five inches of depth, so things sit side by side rather than stacked, and it carries three ways — top handle, crossbody, or shoulder. The Rattan Crossbody Clutch ($278) is a wide crescent with a turn-lock flap and a curved top handle; it tucks under the arm and reads a little dressier. Pick the bucket for daily carrying, the crescent for a more sculptural shape.
Is a rattan bag only for summer?
No. The structured shape and gold chain carry it past the season — with a coat or blazer in autumn it reads as a considered accessory rather than a warm-weather holdover. Natural rattan is a year-round neutral.
Can I carry it to a wedding?
Yes, and it's one of the better choices for an outdoor one. Clip on the gold chain and it's dressed enough for garden parties, rehearsal dinners, and outdoor ceremonies — with room for everything a full day needs.
How do I care for a rattan bag?
Keep it dry and store it somewhere cool and ventilated. Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid prolonged direct sun and moisture, both of which will dull the natural color and soften the structure over time.
Does it make a good gift?
It's a strong one — handcrafted, distinctive, and practical enough to be used constantly rather than saved. Good for milestone birthdays, Mother's Day, anniversaries, and anyone who collects well-made accessories. You can pair it with a Surprise Me JuJu Gift Box (from $115).
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes — shipping is free on every order, no minimum.
