Details

This bag is made of vintage cotton saris, which means that the product has a history. In the past, these saris were worn by women in Bangladesh. They are now up-cycled and given a new life which means that smaller imperfections such as small stains and patches can occur.

The bag is lined with GOTS certified organic cotton. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the worldwide leading textile processing standard for organic fibers, including ecological and social criteria, backed up by independent third-party certification of the entire textile supply chain. A textile product that is GOTS certified must contain a minimum of 70% certified organic fibers.

As with all handmade and small batch items, no two pieces are exactly the same. We hope you will enjoy and celebrate these variations as much as we do.
