Straw Studios Design produces a large selection of hand-made handbags that are mostly made from natural materials. Straw Studios has the largest group of artisans in the world who specialize in this hand crafted form of art, with a mature and sophisticated network of studios and facilities. This form of arts and crafts originated in northern China and can be traced back hundreds of years as it was passed on from generation to generation. It is only in the past few years that the technique has been introduced into the United States where it became an instant success. Straw Studios artisans and designers have developed tens of thousands of styles and models and introduced hundreds of new models each year under the brand names Straw Studios and Madison. Straw Studios is also committed to protecting the environment. "From the beginning, we have always offered environmentally friendly products," says president John Liu. "We built our business on 'green' materials long before it became a popular trend." Straw Studios' handbags are made primarily with natural materials such as cornhusk and wheatstraw. As Liu explains, "These are renewable resources that only require sunshine and earth to replenish each year." While all of their straw handbags are predominantly green, their Eco-Friendly collection highlights the styles which are specifically designed to be Eco-Friendly.
