A colourful take on the classic tote bag, this style is made from repurposed Sari textiles and folds away for easy packing and storage. This one-of-a-kind beauty is sustainably handmade by women artisans in India using repurposed textiles.
Thoughtfully crafted from reclaimed Kantha & Sari textiles that have been hand-sorted, so each piece is slightly different. Say no to single use plastic bags (and look great while doing it).
This fabric has a colourful history, and these tote bags are as unique as the women who made it. Because of this, photographs are intended as references only, bags will differ in pattern and colour due to the fabric's recycled nature.
Handmade in India, fairtrade and sustainable. Each purchase helps to empower women, send girls to school, and transform communities in developing countries, providing a fair wage for the artisans who craft these one of a kind pieces.
