Details
The bag is made from vintage saris, which means the product has a history.
The saris have previously been worn by women in Bangladesh. They have now been upcycled and given a new life. Which means that smaller imperfections such as small stains and patches can occur.
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.
Care
We recommend that you wash the bag as little as possible to protect the product and our planet:
- Gentle wash
- Do not bleach or tumble dry
