This one-of-a-kind bag is crafted from vintage Romanian handwoven fabric. While we can't determine the exact age of each piece of fabric, they are at least 50 years old, with some dating back to the 1930s.
"The Modernist Traditional Bag" is a harmonious blend of ancestral craft and sleek contemporary design. The pixelated rose design and the texture of the weave stands out with its geometric precision, a nod to the modernist aesthetic. The symbols used in Romanian traditional textiles are rich in meaning, each carrying a story or a message passed down through generations. These symbols, found in embroidery, weaving, and other forms of traditional art, are not just decorative; they are a language of their own, deeply rooted in the cultural and spiritual life. For more insight into these cultural motifs, please visit 'Discover FTLO' - 'The tradition'.
This bag's slim profile is complemented by a robust wooden handle, an elegant touch that underscores its modern design.
As one of only six in existence, it is a part of a limited edition series, making it not just an accessory but a collectible piece of art.
Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, this bag is designed for the discerning individual who values exclusivity and environmental consciousness in their fashion choices.
Dimensions: 46 x 28.5 cm (18.1 x 11.2 in)

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
To prolong the life of your bag, we recommend the following care instructions:
Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away any surface dirt. The cork part can be cleaned using a soft cloth slightly dampened with water.
Stain Removal: For stubborn stains on the vintage fabric, consult a professional cleaner. If the cork has stubborn stains, gently rub the area with a soft cloth dipped in a mixture of water and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid using harsh cleaners or scrubbing vigorously, as this can damage the cork.
Avoid Liquid Exposure: Avoid contact with water, oils, perfumes, and cosmetics to prevent damage and discoloration.
Storage: Store your bag in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged and direct exposure to sources of light and heat. Use the dust bag for added protection.
Conditioning the Cork: Though not always necessary, you can apply a natural cork conditioner or a simple beeswax-based product to keep the cork soft and pliable. This can help prevent cracking over time.
Handling with Love: The handmade nature of our bags means they should be handled with care.
