The no-frills, daily-use, sustainable tote. Enough said!

Handmade sustainably in India with approximately 50 discarded plastic bags.

The plastic is collected from Bhangaar Wadas (waste collection points), washed and dried, cut into yarn and is finally hand woven by artisans on traditional looms at Khamir, Kutch.

It is then sewn under fair trade conditions by the Self Help Center in Mumbai in combination with organic cotton fabrics that are naturally dyed with herbs, fruits and vegetables.

The AVOCADO Classic Tote is a modern, urban, sustainable tote bag.

[FEATURE]
- One inner open pocket for easy access

Diti, the founder of Théla is definitely one of many people (but still not enough people!) in the world trying to tackle te problem of plastic pollution. Her knowledge of environmental issues and human rights as well as graphic design really amazed us and her story resonated with us. A truly unique idea and product that is sturdy, stylish and usable ever day. It's hard to believe it is made out of discarded plastic bags. The stories behind the design and the various steps to make the products are equally amazing. The products are produced in India where the designer was born and raised; the brand is helping and has a proactive approach to end poverty. All the products are handmade and one of a kind and you can feel her love in each and every piece.
