Antic Mallorca bags are part of a project that preserves palm weaving Mallorcan craft uniting traditional techniques with contemporary design. Each piece, made from palm leaves sun-dried and harvested in Mallorca, features delicate hand embroidery using repurposed cotton strips sourced from a vintage textile factory. The Sea Leaves bag is Antic Mallorca's distinctive interpretation of traditional capazo baskets. Designed with a deeper silhouette than standard capazos, it emphasizes its natural form. The cotton accents draw inspiration from the gentle flow of leaves drifting on water. This elegant creation carries a meaningful story of social impact, perfect for the discerning slow fashion enthusiast to cherish for years to come.

Studio Tip: The Sea Leaves Capazo beautifully complements our Fragmentos ceramic earrings and necklace, especially in the elegant shades of blue or green. It also makes a great pair with our Bilbao Hoops in blue or teal.

Learn about the Artisan

Antic Mallorca represents Araceli Iranzo’s unique vision within a broader initiative to preserve and honor the traditional palm leaf weaving of Mallorca. Once a thriving publicist in Madrid, Araceli and her family transformed a vacation house on the island into their permanent home, captivated by Mallorca’s peaceful landscapes. Her encounter with Ses Madones de sa Llata, a group of local women who weave palm leaves sun-dried on the island, served as her inspiration. In 2009, she launched Antic Mallorca, a niche brand crafting accessories that fuse traditional weaving with modern designs emphasizing color and form. Collaborating with her sister and perfumer Mónica Iranzo, she also developed the Antic Mallorca Slow perfume, distinguished by its handmade palm leaf-adorned bottle and inspired by the island’s orange groves. In 2021, with the support of Ses Madones, Araceli and two artisans founded La Escuela Artesana, an acclaimed arts and crafts school central to the cultural preservation movement that Antic Mallorca now leads.
