the heritage project 2023


Relax your grip on perfection with the heritage hachi bag at your side. Contrasting Japanese textiles and an antique brass zip make an elegant home for personal essentials, toiletries, tools, or collections of all life’s significant sundries and indispensable what-nots...

This vintage version showcases the beauty of aged, indigo dyed cotton textiles, for a sturdy design that's alive with texture.

Each piece incorporates elements of original heritage textiles, varying slightly in shade and pattern. Yours may differ slightly from the picture.

colour : indigo

materials :
• outer : cotton
• lining : check cotton
• zip : antique brass

care :
Authentic, plant-derived indigo dyes give this piece its rich and lively colour. Both antique and modern indigo dyed fabric is featured in this creation.

Unevenness and complexity are part of its natural character. Unlike synthetic dye, you can expect some indigo to transfer to lighter surfaces (even your skin) so take care during the first 5 washes.

Only wash in cold water by itself. Never spot clean, and iron the reverse with a cool iron (if you wish).

• height 17cm
• length 24cm

This unique piece is part of the heritage project 2023 by LJ struthers and the maker, a creative response to the beauty, longevity, and cultural history of its fabric components.

Every piece is designed and made in Hobart in a spirit of care for the craftsmanship of the past.

With you we share a respect for vintage and antique textiles which should not be abandoned to dust, but celebrated and worn, re-mended and reimagined, part of the fabric of a beautiful life.
