Made from misprinted leather jeans labels collected in India, this bag in the popular Anarkali shape has a denim material lining with two pockets, one for a cell and one with a zipper closure. The bag has 22-inch long straps of imitation leather, a double zipper closure, and measures 14 inches wide by 7 inches tall with a 3.5-inch base.

Meet the Artisans

Born of a desire to reduce India's mountain of waste, improve energy efficiency, and help some of Delhi's poorest out of the city's slums, Conserve India achieves all this by turning plastic bags into high fashion handbags.

Conserve started as a fledgling recycling project but quickly adapted to confront the biggest challenge it was facing, what to do with the thousands of plastic bags that could not be composted or recycled locally.

After much experimentation, the Conserve team hit upon the idea of not recycling, but upcycling by washing, drying, and pressing the bags into sheets. Handmade Recycled Plastic (HRP) was born and designs for handbags, wallets, shoes and belts quickly came flooding in. The challenge was obvious: Use high fashion to support better lives for the poorest and a cleaner environment for all.

Love it!

This looked like such a fun bag and I was not disappointed with the quality. It's extremely well made. I do wish I had gone with the larger version since I carry so much medical equipment with me these days, but this is still an upgrade on size from the fair trade bag I had been using and is adequate for my current needs.

Shipping was extremely fast and my bag arrived in excellent condition.

Thank you so much Charity for your Five Star Review of Small Leather Label Messenger Bag - Conserve! We know that is often times so hard to shop online, and your feedback provides valuable insight into the construction and quality of our artisan craftsmanship and their products! Thank you so much for being an ethical consumer and joining the fair trade movement! It takes so many working parts along with commitment to help others in developing countries! We couldn't accomplish this without you! Thank you! I hope to see you again soon!! Michele/Shopkeeper
