Open a world of heritage and romance with the Pusô Convertible Tote Bag, a versatile piece that transforms from a handbag to a drawstring or shoulder bag with ease. Its clever O-ring detail adapts beautifully to your creative rhythm and everyday needs.
Each piece is lovingly hand-embroidered with either the Sampaguita or Gumamela, two flowers deeply rooted in Filipino identity. The Sampaguita—our national flower—comes from the phrase “sumpa kita,” meaning “I promise you,” symbolizing purity and devotion. The Gumamela, celebrated for its vibrant bloom, carries stories of traditional healing, strength, and resilience passed down through generations.
Every stitch tells a story of love, heritage, and the fleeting beauty of life—just as the Sampaguita blooms by night and fades with the dawn.
Other things to note:
Each piece is handmade by Filipino artisans using upcycled and deadstock fabrics, making every bag truly one-of-a-kind. Slight color and texture variations add to its charm and reflect the beauty of sustainable craftsmanship.
Your bag is handmade with love as it is handmade to last! To keep it in good condition, use mild soap and a damp soft cloth to spot clean. Air-dry only.
Product may be dry cleaned to freshen it up. Avoid using cleaning agents as the up-cycled, overstock cloth & Indigenous textiles used to make this bag might react to them.
Store in a cool dry place away from direct light.
Keep the silica gel pack inside your R2R piece to keep it fresh for a long time!
