Why Surfergrl Loves It: The Diamond Head Paradise has the elegance of a market tote with the distinctive shape of a scoop silhouette. I love how it feels refined and elevated compared to the straight-top Manoa Paradise, while still grounded in classic island tradition. The two-tone weave makes it endlessly versatile—it’s vintage Hawai‘i reimagined in a fresh, modern way.

The Lauhala plant, also called the Pandanus tectorius, has long, spiky leaves. Artisans harvest and process these leaves to create intricate weavings. Lauhala bags, in particular, showcase the skill of traditional Hawaiian craftsmanship. The weaving technique imparts strength to the bags, making them both functional and beautiful.  Not just an accessory, designed in Hawai'i, this tote is a piece of Hawaiian tradition and artistry.

How to Care for Your Diamond Head Paradise Bag:

Lauhala is a beautiful natural fiber—handle it with aloha to keep it looking its best:

• Keep Dry: Avoid prolonged moisture. If it gets wet, gently pat with a soft cloth and let it air dry in a cool, shaded area.
• Clean Gently: Use a soft brush or dry cloth to remove dust or debris. No harsh cleaners or water.
• Store Smart: Keep in a dust bag or pillowcase when not in use. Avoid crushing or placing heavy items on top.
• Avoid Sharp or Heavy Items Inside: Lauhala is sturdy, but delicate. Don’t overstretch or stress the weave.
• Treat it with Love: Like any handcrafted item, the bag will age gracefully with mindful care.
