This tweed-style cross-body bag is lightweight and compact but still has plenty of room for every day essentials. It's ethically made from a wool blend fabric and has a long cross body strap so is super comfortable to wear.  It's fully lined in pretty floral cotton and has an outer zip pocket with contrasting ribbon detail. 16cm x 18cm.

Why we love it

  • A classic timeless design that never dates
  • Handmade through a fair trade project in Vietnam bringing flexible employment to disadvantaged women
  • Designed by a small, family-run business in Warwickshire

    This handy little bag has a flat bottom and a coloured zip fastener with pretty ribbon detail.

    External dimensions approximately 16.5cm wide x 18cm high. Strap approximately 1cm wide x 128cm long . Please note that due to the handmade nature of this product, sizes can vary slightly from those specified.

    Spot clean only.

    Designed in the UK and hand made by skilled artisans through a women's fair trade project in Vietnam. The regular work provided enables women from disadvantaged backgrounds to improve their families’ living conditions and send their children to higher education. The work is also flexible, enabling them to learn new tailoring skills whilst continuing with their education if required.

    The women who make the bags and purses work in small villages either in small, clean, safe workshops or at home so that they can work according to their own and their families’ needs.

    Many workers come from rural rice farming communities where poverty is widespread. Working with Lua enables them to combine their farming obligations with a valuable additional source of income. The work is flexible and they are also able to have time off for family commitments. Training is provided on the job in the workshop for the first two years to develop skills and experience. Higher rates are paid to the women who progress to more skilled work such as pattern cutting and embroidery. The workers are paid sick leave and health insurance is provided for older workers. Bonuses are paid after each season and, in summer, a holiday to the beach is organised for all the workers and their families.

    Materials: Outer - 54% polyester, 42% wool, 2% nylon, 2% cotton. Lining - 51% polyester, 49% nylon.
