Details
This toiletry bag is made from vintage saris, which means the product has a history. The saris were previously worn by women in Bangladesh. They have now been upcycled and given a new life. This means the bags are not perfect and may have small stains and patches.
The toiletry bag is lined with GOTS-certified organic cotton. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is the most recognized global standard for processing organic fibers. The standard is supported by independent third-party certification and guarantees compliance with a wide range of environmental and social criteria throughout the supply chain. Textiles that are GOTS-certified must contain a minimum of 70% certified organic fibers.
Because the products are handmade, no two items will ever be exactly the same. We hope you will appreciate the small unique details and their story as much as we do — and that you will enjoy them for many years to come.
Care
