Named after our founder Carol Lindiwe Bouwer, the Lindiwe Bag is the signature bags of the collection. This is the bag Carol carried through international airports around the world, while building this brand. This is the bag she carried into government and bank boardrooms, seeking funding for the bags, the ones she carried into hallowed halls convincing her family to back her desire to self-fund the bags and ultimately ended up at South Africa's premier One&Only hotel, which became the first home of Carol Bouwer Bags. The Lindiwe Bag is a symbol of perseverance and is a constant reminder that we are becoming.
The LINDIWE MINI bag is available in Ostrich Shin, Python and Crocodile.

Skins and colours may vary so each skin has a unique marking.
Skin Description
Ostrich Quill – The bumpy leather and comes from the main part of the Ostrich. It is the back of the Ostrich where the animal’s neck meets it’s body. The bumps are where the feathers grew.
Ostrich Shin – This skin has a wide scaling down the centre length of the leg with a natural texture and brilliant shine
Python – Exotic skin because of the origins and it’s complicated manufacturing process. Python skin can last for decades with the attention to preservation and maintenance

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Exotic skins are naturally beautiful and manufactured with absolute regard for integrity of the skin. So where there may be natural birthmarks on the skin we request you to not disguise but celebrate the unique nature of each skim used. Regularly clean leather with a soft dry cloth. After manicures where your hands may be oily, we ask that you wear gloves to protect the leather. Keep leather goods away from heat, direct sun and do not store in too dry locations as this causes cracking. In the event it rains while you are carrying your bag, do all humanly possible to cover the bag to avoid spotting. Our bags are investment pieces which we are happy for you to send to us even 5 years later for a bit of love.
