The motif on the bag
The felt body of this bag is decorated with sunflowers and bees — one of the most cheerful images of high summer. Sunflowers turning to face the light, bees moving steadily from flower to flower: together they bring a warm, working-meadow feel to the bag that lifts a grey commuting day. The motifs are sewn in soft tones against the felt background, which keeps the look quietly joyful rather than overwhelming.
Shape and use
At 35 × 27 cm, the bag holds a small grocery shop, a packed lunch and a water bottle, or a few books from the library — enough for an everyday outing without becoming heavy. The strong handles take regular shopping weight comfortably, and the soft felt body sits well under the arm.
Material and origin
The bag is made in India from felt, a warm, slightly textured fabric used for everyday goods across many cultures for centuries. Felt holds its shape without ironing, which makes it forgiving to store and quick to pull out when needed. The empty bag weighs around 100 g, light on the shoulder.
Care
Wipe the felt surface with a slightly damp cloth for routine cleaning, paying extra care around the appliquéd flowers and bees. Spot-clean where possible rather than fully soaking the bag, and let it dry flat in shape so the felt does not stretch at the handles. Keep the bag dry between uses for the longest life.
