Description
Our Simona shopping bag is woven entirely from jute, a plant fibre with a firm, slightly rough texture and a warm, earthy look. The upper body is worked in a chunky braid, while the lower band is finished in neat horizontal stripes, lighter and darker by turns, which adds a quiet pattern without straying from its natural colour. At 42cm long, 25cm wide and 28cm tall it is a roomy, everyday size rather than a small clutch or a vast holdall, and it weighs 0.806KG.
The two long braided handles rest over the shoulder, which makes this a practical bag for errands, trips into town and days out when you want your hands free. Its sides taper from a wider top to a narrower base, and the open top gives quick access to whatever it holds. At home it is just as useful off duty: stand it on a bathroom floor to keep rolled towels together, beside a chair in the living room to keep knitting or magazines tidy, or by the front door as a catch-all for scarves and gloves.
Every part is 100% jute, from the braided body to the striped base and the handles, which carry a lighter stripe along their length. Jute is a coarse plant fibre, and the braid shows every twist of it, so the weave has a slightly irregular, textured surface. It pairs naturally with linen, cotton and soft knits in warm weather, and when it is not in use, hang it by its handles from a hook near the door so it is ready whenever needed. The styling props shown are not included.
