Unit price perThese compact zip pouches are great for safekeeping your essential notions or tiny bits. Each one is handmade by Portuguese artisans from the highest quality local cork fabric.
This sustainable material is dyed with all-natural vegetable dyes to produce these beautiful colours. While it soft and delicate to the touch, cork is actually as durable as leather, while also being water-resistant, lightweight and easy to clean.
Cork is a renewable and cruelty-free material. Did you know that cork production actually cleans the air? A harvested oak is, by law, left for 9 years to regrow its bark, thus allowing a single tree to produce multiple harvests, while staying undamaged. During this time, the tree absorbs up to five times more CO2 than prior to harvest.
As it is a natural wood product, the pattern and texture can vary slightly, making each item subtly unique.

Cork is an ultra durable, long-lasting material, water-resistant, lightweight and easy to clean. Best of all, it's 100% sustainable and biodegradable. It is harvested from the bark of an oak tree without damaging the tree itself. A single oak tree lives up to 200 years and can be harvested more than 16 times! Portuguese cork meets the highest standards of quality and is harvested responsibly, with local laws stipulating that a harvested oak be left untouched for 9 years to flourish and regrow its bark. These impressive oaks grow to be enormous and help to clean the air, making cork production very environmentally friendly.
Beauty, function and sustainability! It's a win win win!

The cork fabric of these bags comes from a tree that is at least 43 years old and is ready to double its age or more!

Simply dip a small hand towel or cleaning cloth into warm water and rub any marks off the cork surface. You can add a bit of soap to the water mixture if just water isn't enough. Alternatively you can also use baby wipes. Let it dry naturally and in a horizontal position so that it keeps its shape.

[#other]For the yarn: hand wash in cold water, lay flat to dry. For the bag: as cork is a natural wood material, it can be susceptible to some cracking with long-term use. Applying cork sealant to the exposed cork helps to prevent it from drying out. We don't do this to our personal cork bags as we find that they uphold quite well, but if you live in a dry climate or feel that it's getting dried out, give cork sealant a try. You can find it in most shoe shops that carry cork footwear, like Birkenstocks or on Amazon.[/other]
