This tote bag, without a flap, has two round handles for hand carrying and a removable shoulder strap with snap hooks for shoulder carrying.

It is equipped with a magnetic closure concealed by a leather buckle and studs on the outer bottom that ensure its protection and stability when placed down.

The rush used for the making of this bag is coated with a varnish that gives it better durability over time and protects it from stains, bad weather, and UV rays.

This artisanal product is 100% handmade by meticulous artisans who master ancestral know-how.

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

    The rush grows wild in the region, no fertilizer, no pesticides, it just takes some effort to harvest it.

    Rush cultivation

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

    Rush calibration

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

    Rush weaving

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