Product Description

This versatile mid-sized Basket & Stitch Tote will be your new favorite everyday bag. The artisans at Govou Textiles transform beautiful antique European hemp grain sacks into each unique bag. The sides are made of patchwork neutral pieces, while the front features a charming hand-stitched Nautilus shell.

This casual basket-shaped tote has a lightweight cotton lining and two shorter handles that lend a more traditional pocketbook feel to these lovely bags. Longer handle straps are also an option for easy over-the-shoulder carrying.

The classic grain sack textiles used to make these bags date from the early 1900’s when every farm had its own distinctive cloth pattern. These textiles are by nature eco-friendly as they were originally handwoven with home-grown plant materials over a century ago. Each up-cycled bag unique.

Govou has found a creative and beautiful way to repurpose lovely vintage textiles into chic, modern, functional bags.
