Manila Bag
The Manila Bag is a unique blend of nostalgia and modernity. Inspired by the iconic jeepney, CHRISTIAN CERA reimagined this crossbody with a custom aluminum plate designed by graphic artist Rose Eola. Beneath it lies a hidden touch—a hand-loomed fabric from the Cordillera, echoing the bag’s adjustable strap. It’s a piece where heritage meets innovation, perfect for the contemporary Filipino.

Price Transparency
We believe in shared responsibility and honoring the many hands that bring our weaves to life. That’s why we practice price transparency—so you can see the true value of your purchase and the impact it makes. While some costs are harder to quantify—like design, artisan training, community development, and the everyday work of strengthening our weaving ecosystem—we want you to know exactly what goes into every piece you wear. Your support keeps our supply chain thriving, our partners empowered, and our traditions alive.
