Uashmama Washable Paper Bag Large
-
When we first stumbled on the Uashmama washable Paper Bags during a trip to Europe we literally could not stop touching and feeling the material. It's like the best bread and paper bag you have ever touched, combined with soft canvas and leather, we knew we had to have them in our little store.
Uashmama (pronounced wash mama) paper bags feel like leather, wash like a fabric, and flatten for easy storage. Originally created as a modest bread bag they look great anywhere, with anything around the home. Designed to be rolled at the top to fit the contents and ready to be used again and again. As the paper washes like a fabric and holds its form for future use, it is the ultimate in promoting sustainability and style for homewares.

Pronounced 'wash mama' it is a project that links innovation with the old techniques from their Tuscan tradition, a story of family, passionate work and a touch of genius.
