Description

Multicoloured woven coca bag with a long thin black woven strap and an open top, with a small flap on the front. Made of two woven panels sewn together to form the front and back of the bag. The strap is sewn into the inside seams of the bag. The front panel has an off-white ground with a vertical coloured band in the centre patterned with alternating diamonds and X shapes made up of green, blue, purple, and brown vertical stripes. The central band has borders with alternating green and blue square sections patterned with asterisk-like shapes. On either side of the central band are two columns with horse figures, which have a line connecting their backs to a parallelogram shape above each horse. The horse figures are in profile and the rows of two are alternately facing the same direction or facing each other. The border outside of these columns has alternating green and pink square sections with asterisk-like shapes. The front panel has a small flap covering the second quarter of the central coloured band, in the same pattern, attached at the top and open on the inside of the bag creating a small pocket. The flap is edged on the sides with tubular wrapped threads, and on the bottom with loops of wrapped thread. The bottom corners of the flap each have a tubular wrapped thread with a ball made of wrapped threads at the end. The wrapped threads are in shades of blue, green, purple, off-white, and black. The back panel has a dark blue ground with a vertical central section of green, blue, purple, and brown vertical stripes. There is a horizontal band at the top with an off-white pattern of diagonal lines inside horizontal stripes. The rest of the top half is blank ground. The bottom half of the panel has thin horizontal off-white stripes. The side and top edges of each panel of the bag have a light blue border with a green, off-white, and pink checkered edge connecting the panels. The bottom of the bag is edged with wrapped thread loops in shades of green, blue, purple, off-white, and black, with a ball made of the wrapped thread loops at each corner and in the centre. Two tubular wrapped threads are attached at each ball and have another ball at the end.
