Details

Handmade shoulder bag – original from Nepal

This shoulder bag brings a piece of the Himalaya directly to your home. Made with loving handwork under fair conditions in Nepal, it unites traditional craft with natural materials.

Each piece a one-off piece

As every bag is made by hand, the pattern and the run of colour are unique on each piece – small deviations from the pictures are not a defect, but the mark of genuine handwork.

Practical in everyday use

The spacious main compartment closes at the top with a zip; most models have additional inner or outer pockets in which keys, purse or phone stay within reach. You will find the exact compartment layout, the measurements and the material in the respective item description.

  • Handwork from Nepal, fairly made

Care instructions

The natural materials used give this bag its durability and its pleasant hand. With the right care, these properties are preserved for many years.

✓ Air it regularly rather than washing it often Natural fibres such as hemp and cotton stay fresh for a long time when aired. It is often enough to let the bag air in the fresh air after use. This protects the fibres and makes frequent washing unnecessary.

✓ Gentle hand washing recommended For cleaning, we recommend gentle hand washing in cold to lukewarm water (max. 30 °C). Use only a mild, pH-neutral detergent without bleach or aggressive additives.

✓ Treat stains locally For smaller marks it is often enough to treat the affected area specifically with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent – from the outside inwards, without rubbing, so that nothing runs.

✓ Do not rub, wring or pull The natural fibres should only be moved gently during washing. Vigorous rubbing, twisting or pulling can impair the pattern and structure of the fabric.

✓ Remove moisture gently After washing, press the bag out carefully without wringing it. Then roll it in a clean towel to absorb excess moisture.

✓ Dry lying flat and in shape Let the bag dry in the air in the shade, easing it loosely back into its original shape. Do not tumble dry, as heat can strain the natural fibres and distort the fabric.

✓ Protect from heat and direct sunlight Direct sunlight, radiators or other strong sources of heat can dry out the natural fibres and fade the colours.

✓ Store with care Always store the bag clean and completely dry. For longer storage, a breathable fabric bag is advisable, along with natural moth protection, for example cedar wood or lavender sachets. Loosely stuffed, the bag keeps its fine shape.

✓ Slight colour transfer is natural With strongly dyed natural fibres, slight colour transfer can occur – above all in the first few washes. This is a natural process and not a defect in quality. For this reason, wash the bag separately the first few times.

✓ Professional cleaning if needed For heavier soiling, professional cleaning by a cleaner experienced in handling natural fibres is advisable. Always observe the care instructions on the label.

Cleaning, care and storage

How to clean and care for your handwoven bag properly

The natural fibres are robust and easy to care for by nature. With a few simple steps, your handmade piece from Nepal stays beautiful for a long time – entirely without aggressive agents.

Slide image

How to store your bag properly

So that your handwoven bag from Nepal stays with you for as long as possible, correct storage is worthwhile. With these simple recommendations it keeps its shape and retains its beautiful colours.

1. Prefer hand washing Clean the bag by hand in lukewarm water (max. 30 °C) with a mild detergent. This protects both the fibres and the colours.

2. No machine, no bleach Avoid the washing machine, the tumble dryer, bleach and harsh chemicals. These can attack the natural material and cause the strong ethnic colours to fade.

3. Treat stains immediately Dab fresh stains locally with a damp cloth – working from the outside inwards and without rubbing, so that nothing spreads.

4. Rinse gently Rinse the bag with clear, lukewarm water until no soap residue remains. Do not wring it out; press the water out gently instead.

5. Dry in the air Let the bag dry flat and in the shade – never in the tumble dryer. Direct sun can bleach the natural colours.

6. Iron gently If necessary, iron the bag at a low temperature and preferably from the reverse side. Try to avoid ironing over the coloured woven pattern.

7. Wash separately at first Wash the bag on its own the first few times. Natural materials can lose a little colour at the beginning – this protects your other textiles.

With this gentle care your bag stays durable, fresh and a real eye-catcher.

1. Store dry Keep the bag in a dry place, away from moisture. This prevents mould and mildew spots and keeps the natural fibres healthy.

2. Airy rather than airtight Do not store the bag in plastic, but in a breathable fabric bag. This lets the natural material “breathe” and prevents musty odours.

3. Preserve the shape Loosely stuff the bag with tissue paper or soft fabric. It will then keep its shape even in the wardrobe.

4. Protect from sun Store the bag in a dark, shaded place. Constant direct sun can bleach the strong ethnic colours over time.

5. Store it clean Clean the bag before putting it away and empty all compartments. Stains or crumbs should not be left in storage for long periods.

6. Do not squash Store the bag upright or hanging slightly, and not underneath heavy objects, so that the fabric and the woven pattern are not permanently crushed.

7. Natural moth protection For longer storage, add a lavender sachet or a little cedarwood – a gentle, natural alternative to chemical moth repellents.

With a little care in how it is stored, your bag will remain a faithful and beautiful companion for many years.
