A larger pouch that gives more space for your treasures
This pouch is made from upcycled silk and comes in a larger size: twenty-six centimetres wide and seventeen centimetres tall. The fine shine of the silk and the unique pattern catch the eye immediately, and you hold a piece that has no exact twin. The size is particularly well suited to those who wish to keep several small items together.
Everyday situations where it serves you well
The larger space allows a longer mala chain, several rings, earrings, or even a smaller notebook to fit comfortably inside. While travelling it serves especially well: cosmetic essentials, headphones, charging cables can each go into their own pouches, and you finally find them in your bag. At home it also looks lovely on top of a dresser, and the contents do not get mixed up.
The story of the upcycled textile
The silk of the pouch has been given a new life from an earlier garment or textile. This is what makes the whole thing special: every pouch has a different colour and a different pattern, because the source material itself varies. You receive a piece that carries the story of an earlier textile within it. If you look for environmentally conscious choices, you will appreciate this particularly, because the old material has become usable again.
How to take care of it
Silk is a sensitive material, and it is best to hand wash it in cold or lukewarm water with a gentle detergent. Avoid strong rubbing or wringing. Dry it flat, away from direct sunlight, so the colours do not fade. Ironing is recommended only on a low setting, on the reverse side. With regular use the textile develops a beautiful patina and keeps its character for a long time.
Origin and packaging
The pouches are sewn in Nepal, where handcrafted textile work has a long history. They arrive in paper bag packaging, which is environmentally friendly, and you receive a carefully prepared, individual piece. If you order more than one for personal use and as a gift, you can expect each to have a different pattern, which is in itself a lovely surprise for the recipient.
