Description
This handmade Harris Tweed bumble bee sling bag is part of a range originally inspired by a one-off creation for UN World Bee day. The bee detail on the front panel is embroidery / appliqué on a yellow Harris Tweed embroidered with a honeycomb and incorporates a zipped pocket handy, for example, for a large phone. The side panels are black Harris Tweed and the rear panel is yellow textured vinyl with a top hanger. The lining is a yellow waterproof ripstop nylon and incorporates a slip pocket made in a bee-patterned cotton.
A great gift for a bee-lover! UK shipping is free. This item will be tissue-wrapped and sent securely in a cardboard posting box. I am happy to post to a gift recipient and add a gift card with your message if you wish. Just enter the recipient’s address for shipping and tell me your message in the checkout comments box. UK postage will be free.
My bumble bee sling bag is 30 cm high, 20 cm wide with a depth of 9 cm. The strap is 2.5 cm wide in yellow webbing and adjustable between 68 and 120 cm in length so the bag can be worn on the shoulder or cross-body. The top zip is black nylon and clasps/pulls are all black metal. Alternative d-rings are provided for slinging the bag to the left or right.
The maker’s label and Harris Tweed Orb label of authenticity are placed internally.
