Bag Potli
A bag potli is not just an accessory. It is a feeling. A memory. A quiet expression of Indian heritage carried gracefully in the hand. At 5 Elements, every bag potli is designed for women who value craftsmanship, comfort, and elegance—without excess or noise.
Inspired by the ancient Indian philosophy of Panchtatva, 5 Elements creates accessories that feel rooted yet relevant. Each bag potli blends traditional artistry with modern refinement, making it perfect for weddings, celebrations, and meaningful occasions where style is personal and intentional.
The Cultural Significance of the Bag Potli
Indian fashion has always honoured detail and intention. From handwoven textiles to embroidered borders, every element tells a story. The bag potli has long held a special place in Indian dressing—carried during weddings, festivals, and family gatherings.
Traditionally crafted as a small drawstring pouch, the potli symbolised grace and abundance. Today, it has evolved into a refined luxury accessory that pairs beautifully with both traditional and contemporary silhouettes. At 5 Elements, this evolution respects heritage while embracing modern needs.
Handcrafted Luxury Rooted in Indian Artistry
True luxury is slow. It is thoughtful. It is made by skilled hands. At 5 Elements, every potli is handcrafted by artisans who have spent years perfecting their craft.
Each piece reflects:
-
Traditional Indian embroidery techniques
-
Premium fabrics selected for richness and durability
-
Refined detailing that feels elegant, not heavy
-
Soft interiors designed to hold essentials with care
Our Potlis bags are created in small batches, ensuring quality, consistency, and individuality in every piece.

A Legacy of Trust and Design Excellence
5 Elements was founded in 2005 by Radhika Gupta, an alumna of the London College of Fashion and a member of the Fashion Design Council of India. Her design journey began with handcrafted juttis that gained recognition for their elegance and comfort.
Growing up surrounded by Indian craftsmanship, Radhika developed a deep respect for artisanal techniques early in life. That respect continues to shape every collection today—from footwear to accessories like the bag potli.
Nearly two decades later, 5 Elements stands for authenticity, credibility, and refined Indian luxury.
