Beaded Disc Envelope Clutch Bag – Enkomono Epejo (The Treasured Gift)

More than a mere accessory—this clutch is a refined invocation of Enduring Kenyan Craftsmanship and Subtle Elegance, perfect for carrying your most treasured essentials.

Introducing the Enkomono Epejo Beaded Disc Envelope Clutch: A sophisticated, flat envelope clutch crafted from smooth, supple leather in rich tan, bronze, or black tones. The magnetic fold-over flap is adorned with one or two small, hand-stitched circular beaded discs (Olkereti), showcasing meticulous artistry and a flash of vibrant or subtle colour.

Artisan Connection

Handcrafted by a skilled collective in Kajiado County, Kenya, this clutch represents a refined application of traditional Maasai beadwork onto luxury leather goods. The compact, circular discs evoke wholeness, prestige, and a concentrated energy of protection. Each piece is shaped with intention—offering polished style, cultural continuity, and direct, sustainable income to the artisan community.
