Rattan Crossbody Clutch with Gold Chain
Rattan Crossbody Clutch with Gold Chain
Couldn't load pickup availability
Handcrafted from natural rattan in a tight, dense weave — this is not a loose beach basket. The weave is precise enough to read as luxury across a room, with the texture variation that only comes from something made by hand rather than stamped by a machine. No two are identical.
The crescent silhouette is what people notice first. It's a sculptural shape rather than a square or a pouch, and it holds that shape whether it's on a table, on your shoulder, or tucked under your arm. Nothing collapses or slouches.
The gold chain is the whole argument
A rattan bag with a fabric strap is a beach accessory. A rattan bag with a substantial gold chain is an evening bag. The hardware here has real weight — it catches light and swings when you walk, and that contrast between natural fiber and polished metal is what makes this work with a cocktail dress. The matching gold turn lock shuts with a firm click and keeps the flap secured.
The chain detaches completely. Dinner somewhere nice? Carry it as a clutch. Walking a market on holiday? Clip the chain on and go hands-free. Same bag, two entirely different reads.
How much it holds
More than an evening clutch. The crescent is wide, so a phone, card wallet, keys, sunglasses, and lipstick sit comfortably without cramming. What it doesn't have is the depth of a bucket shape — things sit alongside each other rather than stacking. If you want a rattan bag for a full day of carrying, the Rattan Bucket Bag ($258) is the deeper one. If you want a shape people comment on, this is it.
Inside, a cotton lining protects everything and stops items catching on the weave.
Where you'll carry it
Vacation and travel. It photographs beautifully against water, stone, and cobblestone, and it reads as something found at a market abroad. Resort dinners, seaside evenings, exploring a new city with just your essentials. See our resort accessories guide.
Weddings and garden parties. Outdoor ceremonies, coastal weddings, rehearsal dinners. Rattan brings a warmth a standard satin clutch can't, and the gold chain keeps it dressed. More in our summer wedding guest accessories and garden party accessories.
Summer evenings. Date night, rooftop bars, patio dinners, birthdays. Against a black dress the rattan becomes the focal point — see our date night accessories guide.
Autumn, too. Rattan against a camel coat or a chunky knit reads as deliberate rather than seasonal. Our post on transitioning accessories from summer to fall covers it.
Style it with
Rattan and gold works across warm tones, cool tones, and everything between. Black is the strongest pairing — the natural fiber pops against dark fabric and the chain picks up your jewelry. White linen, cream silk, navy, coral, sage, and warm metallics all work.
Gold earrings echo the chain most naturally: the Gold Starfish & Shell Earrings ($78) lean coastal, the Gold Bow Stud Earrings ($58) keep it quiet. Add a Wide Brim Straw Sun Hat ($128) for daytime, or tie a Coastal Print Twilly Scarf ($28.50) to the chain.

The Rattan Clutch Bag with Ivory Ribbon Handles ($258) is softer and more romantic, and the Rattan & Woven Crossbody Purse in Tan ($158) is the everyday small bag.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it hold?
More than a typical evening clutch. The crescent is wide, so a phone, card wallet, keys, sunglasses, and lipstick fit without cramming. It's shallower than a bucket shape, so things sit side by side rather than stacked.
Is the gold chain detachable?
Yes. Take it off and carry it as a clutch, or clip it on for crossbody or shoulder wear. The chain is substantial — real weight and a polished gold finish, not a thin decorative one.
What is it made of?
Handcrafted natural rattan in a tight weave, with a cotton-lined interior, a smooth flap with gold turn lock, and polished gold chain hardware. Because rattan is natural, color and grain vary from bag to bag.
How is this different from the Rattan Bucket Bag?
Shape, mostly. This is a wide crescent with a turn-lock flap that tucks under the arm and reads a little dressier. The Rattan Bucket Bag ($258) stands upright with five inches of depth and carries three ways — top handle, crossbody, or shoulder. Choose this one for the silhouette and the evening read; choose the bucket for daily carrying.
Is rattan durable?
Yes. Rattan is naturally strong and holds structure over time, and a tight weave adds stability. Kept dry and out of direct sun, a well-made rattan bag lasts for years.
Is a rattan bag only for summer?
No. The structured shape and gold hardware carry it past the season — with a coat or blazer it reads as a considered accessory rather than a warm-weather holdover.
Can I carry it to a wedding?
It's one of the better options for an outdoor one. Rattan and polished gold sit right between formal and relaxed, which is exactly what garden parties, coastal ceremonies, and rehearsal dinners call for.
How do I care for it?
Keep it dry and store it somewhere cool and ventilated. Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid prolonged direct sun and moisture — both dull the natural color and soften the structure over time.
Does it make a good gift?
A strong one. It's handcrafted, distinctive, and gets used rather than saved. Good for milestone birthdays, anniversaries, Mother's Day, or anyone who notices craftsmanship. 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.
