Rattan Bucket Bag with Gold Chain

Of all the rattan bags we carry this is the one that holds the most — the bucket shape gives it depth that clutch styles can't match, and the 10"L x 5"D x 7"H dimensions mean it actually works as a daily bag, not just a statement piece you carry to dinner.

Handcrafted from natural rattan with the same tight, refined weave as our other rattan bags — structured, substantial, and beautiful in that way only natural materials can be. The rattan has warmth, texture, and subtle color variations that make each bag one of a kind. But it's the bucket silhouette that sets this one apart. The depth means your phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, lipstick, and even a small water bottle or book actually fit without cramming. This is the rattan bag for women who want the look without sacrificing function.

The smooth top handle gives you a polished, classic carry — hold it at your side and it reads as effortlessly sophisticated. Detach the gold chain strap and it's a structured top-handle bag for errands, farmers markets, and everyday wear. Clip the chain back on and wear it crossbody or over the shoulder for a more relaxed, hands-free vibe. Three carry options, one bag.

Why This Bucket Shape Works

Most rattan bags are flat — clutches, envelope shapes, slim silhouettes designed for evening essentials only. This bucket shape changes the math. The 5" depth gives you real interior volume while the structured rattan walls keep everything organized and the bag holding its form. Nothing collapses, nothing slouches, and your belongings aren't piled on top of each other.

That combination of natural rattan craft and genuine everyday utility is rare. This is a bag that looks like a vacation find but functions like your go-to daily carry. Most "special" bags sit in the closet between events — this one earns its place in your weekly rotation.

Three Ways to Carry It

Top handle: Hold it by the smooth handle for a polished, structured look — this is the classic carry for brunch, shopping, work meetings that don't require a laptop. The handle sits comfortably in your hand and the bucket shape hangs straight at your side.

Gold chain crossbody: Clip on the detachable gold chain and wear it across your body for hands-free ease. The gold hardware adds evening polish and the crossbody position keeps the bag secure while you move through a crowd, explore a new city, or dance at a wedding.

Gold chain shoulder: Let the chain rest on your shoulder for a more relaxed, draped carry. This is the "walking through the farmers market with a coffee in your other hand" mode.

Where You'll Take It

The bucket shape and neutral rattan color make this the most versatile bag in our rattan collection — it goes more places than the clutch styles because it holds more and carries more ways.

Everyday: Errands, coffee runs, weekend shopping, lunch dates. The bucket shape holds everything you need for a full day out, and the natural rattan elevates even the most casual outfit.

Vacation and travel: The bag that photographs beautifully against water, stone, and greenery. Resort dinners, seaside markets, pool days, exploring a new city. It reads as "found at a boutique in the Mediterranean" every single time.

Weddings and events: Outdoor ceremonies, garden parties, rehearsal dinners. The gold chain dresses it up, the rattan keeps it relaxed, and the size means you can carry everything you need for a full event without a second bag.

Year-round: Rattan against a camel coat, chunky knit, or leather jacket in fall reads as intentional and collected — like someone who curates their accessories rather than just matching.

Add to cart — the handcrafted rattan bag with room for your actual life.

Style It With

Rattan is the neutral that actually has personality — it works with every color in your closet without disappearing into the background. A black dress and this bag (like our product photos) is one of the best pairings in fashion — the natural rattan pops against dark fabric and the gold chain picks up any gold jewelry.

Gold statement earrings are the most natural pairing — the warm tones echo the chain beautifully. A charm necklace layers in more gold for a cohesive, polished look. Add a headband for the full artisan-textured aesthetic, or a brooch on your jacket for extra personality.

White, cream, navy, coral, sage, denim, and bold prints all work beautifully with natural rattan. The bucket shape is casual enough for jeans and elevated enough for a dress — the chain strap is what shifts the dial between the two.
