material
Birch bark has been used for centuries in traditional items in Finland. Birch-bark has even been dubbed as the "plastic of old days" due to its versatility and durability. The birch bark used in the weaving of our special bag Editions is left-over from logging in Finland and hand picked to be used in our bags. It has been collected to ensure nothing goes to waste from the valuable resources the forest gives us.
