Full description
These unique purses are made from punctured bicycle inner tubes and are hand-stamped with a eco-friendly motto: 'be the change'. Perfect for storing change in a bag or car, or other small bits and pieces. It can also hold one (maybe two) standard sized 7-piece Dungeons and Dragons dice set (sharp pointed dice may puncture the material and are not recommended). It has a flap that closes with a snap to help keep everything secure.
This is the Large size, which measures between 10-11 cm along one side. Check out my listings for other sizes.
Contents not included!
Each one is unique, handmade by me from punctured bicycle inner tubes and washable metal snaps. They have been stamped with my business name. You'll receive a lucky dip samosa that may feature characteristics from its previous life in a bicycle tyre like wear, marks, texture, etc.
The tubes are sourced from local bike shops. They'd normally end up in landfill as most people wouldn't pay a mechanic's time to do a puncture repair - instead a new one's fitted and the old one discarded.
These have been saved from that fate, helping the bike shops reduce their waste and keeping useful materials out of landfill.
They'll be sent with one of my business cards and a slip with information about my business and looking after your samosa. I ship everything in plastic-free packaging.
Each item is handmade from reclaimed materials so sizes vary slightly, see photos for some measurements.
While all inner tubes are washed thoroughly before being remade into new products, they may still mark light surfaces.
NB: Please ignore any white dot stickers you see in photos. They're for stocktaking purposes and shouldn't be included in the item you receive.
