    Indigo Moon Small East West Tote

    The Small East West Tote is the perfect size for your day’s goods (including a laptop) and is incredibly durable. Removable leather handles mean it’s also washable.

    Indigo Moon canvas is printed and dyed by a family of textile artists in Western India. The “moons” are block printed by hand with resist paste onto undyed canvas, which is then submerged into the indigo dye vat up to twenty times to achieve a dark blue. The process yields a perfectly imprecise print, evidence of its handmade nature.

    *Please note that all natural indigo sheds dye until it fades or is washed a few times. Because of this, we recommend that you not wear light colors when carrying this bag.*

    • Converts from handheld to shoulder with detachable leather handles
    • Once the handles are removed, the tote is washable
    • All seams are double stitched and bound with cotton on the inside
    • One interior pocket
    • Leather handles will patina over time with exposure to the sun and the oils in your skin
    • Hand wash separately in cold water. Hang dry in the shade. 
    • Due to our small batch production and the handwork involved, canvas colors will vary slightly from one production to the next.
