silver

Tonsiba is knitted from fine brass wire — a sheer metallic mesh that catches the light and slouches around whatever it carries. Twin flat 18 cm handles, riveted in place.

It weighs almost nothing, folds flat, and the knit stretches around a surprising load — the paperback, the lemon, the small essentials of a day. The knit shows a hint of what's inside, the way a market net does, but with a shine that reads as jewellery rather than utility.

Any decorative charm shown in photos is for styling only and not included with the bag.
