Raw-edge canvas, rustic by design.

Each tote is cut from heavyweight natural cotton canvas and left with a raw, unfinished edge — so the weave frays a little, softens with wear and takes on that lived-in, rustic character no polished bag ever gets. Reinforced webbing straps, gold hardware and a structured 37 × 27 cm body that holds its shape.

Five strap colourways — grey, green, red, navy and off-white — shown here in real photographs so you can see exactly how the colour sits against the natural canvas before you design.

The House

Heirloom, not throwaway.

The Patch and Pearl Edit was born from a love of the well-travelled tote — the one covered in pins, patches and souvenirs from places you've actually been. We make the canvas, we press and hand-stitch the patches you choose, and you get an heirloom that nobody else will ever own.
