These bags are made by the old artisans of the village of Castanheira Alcobaça, brought together by Nuno Barreiro, a son of the village. A beautiful, authentic story!

The rush grows wild in the region, no fertilizers, no pesticides, just a bit of effort to harvest it.

Cultivation of rush

Calibrating, drying, everything is manual and local: no transport, no chemicals, no machines...

Calibrating the rush

Weaving: At this stage too, everything is local. The village artisans share a workshop and take turns to fulfill orders.

Weaving the rush

Assembly, finishing, and quality control: no bag leaves the workshop without being thoroughly inspected by the elders.
