This satchel bag, with flap, has a round handle 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 spikes on the outside bottom which ensure its protection and stability when it is put down.
The rush used to make this bag is coated with a varnish that gives it a better hold over time and protects it from stains, weather and UV rays.
 
This handmade product is 100% handmade by meticulous craftsmen who master an ancestral know-how.

These bags are made by the old craftsmen of the village of Castanheira Alcobaça gathered under the impulse of Nuno Barreiro, a son of the village. A beautiful and authentic story!
 
The rush grows wild in the region, no fertilizers, no pesticides, it only takes a few efforts to harvest it.

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