Filt String Bag In Blue

This blue Filt string bag is a real classic of French design. It immediately evokes sunny markets in Provence, and afternoons spent browsing Parisian shop windows. Made from 100% organic cotton, it’s a great alternative to plastic carrier bags. Simply fold it up in your pocket and you need never take a plastic bag again! Plus, the string mesh can expand to carry a generous amount of shopping.

String bags like these have been used in France for decades and were traditionally used to carry groceries. The strong cotton net bags squish down into almost nothing, so they’re a convenient way to make sure you always have a bag to hand.

The bag is machine washable.

Normandy-based Filt have been making string bags since 1860. Originally made by the peasant community, the workers eventually banded together into a formal company. Filt still knit the bags using traditional techniques passed down through generations. These lightweight, compact, yet durable bags find plenty of uses in modern life – from grocery shopping to trips to the library. They’re an ideal gift for anyone into classic French style.
