Description
These one-of-a-kind upcycled, colourful zipper pouches were lovingly handmade by a skilled artisan in Pondicherry, India. Each pouch purchased from this listing includes a large zipper pouch made from a recycled rice sack, each adorned with colourful images and text.
Each one is unique, made from upcycled rice sacks (the rice sacks are throughout India), so each design is unique. Bright colours, bold prints, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and other Indian scripts, and even cooking instructions make each of these pouches truly one-of-a-kind. Each recycled rice sack pouch has a high quality zipper to secure the items you keep inside. The inside of each pouch is lined with sari or upcycled cotton fabric.
The pouches are strong, and each outer surface can be wiped clean with a wet cloth. These bags are great for storing brushes, pens, pencils, cosmetics, school supplies, loose cash, coins or receipts, or anything else you fancy.
Our rice sack pouches make excellent ethical, sustainable gifts, and make brilliant gifts!
As these bags have had a previous life they may have slight marks and imperfections.
IMPORTANT NOTE: the pouches from this collection are made from upcycled materials! This means they are all similar but not exactly the same. Each pouch purchased will be chosen at random; if you have a preference, please leave a note at checkout and we will do our best to accommodate your request, where possible - THANK YOU!
