I'm all for keeping things simple and especially keeping my customers happy. This is the easiest bag I have ever had the pleasure of wearing and I have had a few!
A serendipitous meeting with Devon based accessories designer Anna Holm of Holm Goods led to our collaboration with a hybrid of her fantastic Nevis bag made from dry waxed canvas, it’s waterproof and lightweight and has fully adjustable crossbody leather straps plus the option of wearing it as a shoulder bag. This season I have added a lovely anthracite grey colour to the existing navy, both bags are lined in a chic woven cotton ikat fabric.
As existing fans of this bag already know, it's a 'go to' everyday bag - lightweight yet reassuringly strong and easy to wear. It's the perfect size purse for a variety of activities - taking care of all your daily needs without weighing you down. Roomy enough to carry ipad, books, camera etc.. with a handy exterior pocket. It's perfect for days when you don't want to lug around a large bag, this neat unfussy design is just the job and will soon become a trusty daily accessory.
Each bag will be made to order for you in Anna's work shop in deepest Devon, please allow approx 7-10 days plus first class postage time of 1-3 days for the bag to arrive.

AFTER CARE
Best way to look after waxed canvas is to not clean it! What madness is this?! Don’t touch it, step away from the cleaning products and leave it alone. We know this sounds bonkers, but it’s the daily grot and grunge that mingle together to create the highly sought after lived in look or ‘patina’.
If you really feel you need to give it a spruce up, then spot clean only, gently wipe with a soft cloth after brushing any surface dirt off.
