A really lovely handbag - neat, effortlessly stylish and a bit different all at the same time! The sturdy plaited handles are just the right length to allow the bag to be either carried in the hand or worn over your shoulder. Closes securely with a zip. These bags are made from recycled juice packs - non-biodegradable foil and plastic packaging that would otherwise go into landfill sites and incinerators. Approx. 12in/30cm wide, 7.5in/19cm high (not including handles). These products are made by a women's cooperative in the Philippines. The large number of bags and household items that are produced every year prevents vast quantities of juice packs from being burnt, buried or simply littering the streets and waterways. The cooperative has won a number of awards in the Philippines for its concern for the environment and its outstanding contribution to both waste recycling and employment generation.
