Vietnamese Hand Embroidered Bags

HONG TU and PAULINE LEWIS

 Hong Tu's designs, combined with Pauline's vision and direction, are the cornerstone of Oovoo™ design. This alliance between two woman-owned enterprises has grown to support over 600 women in Vietnam with 120 full-time employees in the southern region of Vietnam and 500 part-time embroiderers in the North. Oovoo bags are made from a synergistic mix of 100% cotton, polyester silk, leather and suede. The threads are color-fast silk threads. Each panel is hand-embroidered  and then the bag is sewn together.

To clean: If your bag is a fabric bag, just take a wet cloth and wipe the stain clean. Do not be afraid to rub a little to get the stain out. Let the bag dry and use! If your bag is a leather bag, you can apply a clear leather protector cream on the leather parts before you start to use the bag. Like all other leather bags, if there is a stain that you cannot remove, please take the bag to a professional leather repair shop.
