This fun Nahui Ollin purse is made of recycled cookie wrappers. Gently used for a short time, it has two longer straps that allow you to carry by hand or put it over your shoulder. Made from recycled materials, every bag is unique and is constructed from old sweet wrappers, newpapers, barcodes, magazines or bottle labels. Crafted using unique ancient Mayan weaving techniques, it can take up to four thousand wrappers and as long as four days for an individual artisan to make one bag. Each bag is hand-made from around 1500 individual wrappers and follows a process of folding, weaving and sewing each one into place – sometimes taking up to three days to make. Being that the wrappers are put into place one at a time, each bag is produced in its own colour scheme and pattern, insuring that it is one-of-a-kind. Nahui Ollin seek to remain ethical as well as sustainable in the production of their goods, supporting local artisans and ensuring they stick to Fair Trade and Sweatshop free practices in Mexico. They are ethical, sustainable and you will be sure to have the only one of its kind as each bag is unique and individual. Note: Overall this purse is in excellent condition, however there is a little bit of visible wear at the tops of the straps and there is also some wear on the corners of the wrappers at the points of the wrappers on the side edges of the purse. Please ask any questions you have before buying!
