Loving craftsmanship and unique details!
In your handmade "My Papaya Love" travel bag, you can pack everything you need for a multi-day trip and save valuable time at the airport. You don't even have to check this marvel of space-saving design, because it is carry-on size! You can easily fit a portion of your wardrobe, an XL towel, your sneakers, a laptop, and your KIKOONI bag-in-bag. Your flexible and lightweight cotton bag really has room for everything you need for a short vacation or a business trip. The travel bag is perfect for stowing your most important and beautiful items. The adjustable straps, which allow you to wear your favorite bag crossbody, can also be removed to carry the bag over the shoulder. One of the best features: your travel bag has a strap that lets you perfectly "slide" it onto your rolling luggage handle. And now for the really best part: each of these bags is one-of-a-kind and made with love in India. The artisans print the pure cotton fabric by hand using wooden stamps or the screen printing process. This technique is called block print or screen print. Afterward, they decorate the bag with the famous and traditional Kantha embroidery and finish it with tassel details on the zipper. The handmade "My Papaya Love" travel bag is thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail and stands out from the mainstream with feather-light ease.Fair, resource-friendly, and with a creative spirit
The outer material is made of pure cotton, and the inner lining is made of matching soft cotton fabric. This makes the bag particularly flexible and lightweight. A small production facility in Jaipur, India, makes the embroidered cotton bags under fair working conditions. The production avoids using large machines, which saves large amounts of water and electricity. The resource-friendly process reflects the relaxed working climate. We place great importance on special, one-of-a-kind pieces that have been created with love and a creative spirit, and—with our support and yours—continue to be created.Vegan bags
No animal products are used in the manufacturing process, and the cotton fabrics are printed by hand using a wooden stamp. Since the artisans apply the Kantha embroidery made of cotton thread with a sewing machine and the interior is sewn in by sewing machine, the result is a purely vegan product.Resource-friendly
The production facility thrives primarily on the uniquely beautiful block print process, which has a tradition in Jaipur. The artisans print the motifs and patterns onto the cotton fabrics by hand using large wooden stamps and natural, azo-free dyes. The production uses machines only on a small scale, such as irons and sewing machines, so that the small company saves a lot of water and electricity compared to other large production facilities.
