Ideal for the weekend markets and shopping trips, this natural String bag with vegetable dyed tan leather handles and antique brass hardware, combines style with substance. Hand knotted from finely twisted jute string, this versatile piece is handmade from start to finish by fair trade artisans in Bangladesh.
The Dharma Door was created by Founder Shannon Sheedy after spending a year travelling in India and Nepal with her husband. The refugees motivated her to return to Australia in 2004 and design The Dharma Door's first product - a reinterpretation of the culture's traditon fabric prayer bag. This journey then took her to Bangladesh; the timeless craft of woven jute, and a wonderful not-for-profit NGO group who genuinely supported its artisans. Now she is based in their home studio in the hills of Byron Bay working with a global team to replicate this approach across contients.
