Berwick Offray Matte Light Brown Raffia Ribbon, 1/4'' Wide, 100 Yards

Very nice!! I love it!! I used this to wrap little gifts in clear bags at Christmas and it made all my packaging look so pretty that some have said that it is too pretty to open and use!! It's a keeper!! Nice color, too!! More of an earthy kraft paper look....not golden like it appears on my screen. It made my homemade goodies look very classy in an organic way! : )Very happy with it! Strong, too! Have not broken any, even when I untied the bow and had to retie, it still stayed quite strong!

Initially I was disappointed with this ribbon because I expected it to be more like raffia. But after giving it a try on a gift box and to organize greeting cards, I was pleasantly surprised by its look and ease of use (when tying it, it didn't break or fray). I would recommend this ribbon.

I really like this ribbon/string/raffia. I use it as part of my packaging and presentation when I mail my handmade jewelry to my clients. I have several colors and it's fun to mix them together for a variety of fun looks. It's stronger than paper raffia, but has a similar "organic" look, so it works perfectly for my needs. It arrived quickly and well packaged. I'm a happy customer.

Wanted this raffia to crochet a summer bag. It’s too stiff and thick to work with. Excellent for crafts. Who knew all raffia was not the same?

I used this to wrap soaps I made for presents and it's perfect, very nice wraphia!! It is sturdy and thick but very easy to use, super high quality, would definitely use this again.

Just what I needed. Holds up good and easy to work with

This is more paper than rafia-like. Still easy to find a use for it. However, can't tie too hard b/c it rips easily. Ok w/ gentle tying.

This works well as a tie on vases, packages, gift bags and any other ribbon use locations. Mixes well with themed events using burlap, jute cord, and other natural fibers. I even recently used some to cover the mechanics/floral tape and small corsages for a wedding and they complimented the other natural elements used elsewhere and blended in well with the flowers without standing out too much.
