Chaguar is a thorny fibrous plant similar to the yucca. The Wichi Indians of Northern Argentina harvest the chaguar, manually peel and clean the plant and beat it to soften it. THe weaver then separates the fiber by hand. Natural dyes made from roots, fruits, seeds, leaves, and bark are used to dye the fiber before the weaver, using wooden needles, weaves the chaguar fabric into patterns from nature including armadillo, snakeskin, and jaguar fur. This large chaguar bag is approximately 10.25 by 9.25 inches with a 40 inch long woven strap. Many of these have zippers but not all. Please specify any zipper or no zipper requests in the comments section. Colors and design will vary but all are beautiful.
