MATERIALS

Dry Wax

The Dry Wax fibre is hand waxed and finished using our proprietary process. This finish evokes a feeling of heritage and has a rugged durability. This fibre is for the committed bag user becoming softer with each successive use. Over time, it develops a beautiful aged patina. The pure beeswax makes the bags both water and soil repellent.

Wet Wax

The Wet Wax fibre has been manufactured by the same family-owned company since the early 19th century. The waxes are emulsified with oils creating a soft, full bodied fibre that is both water and soil repellent. The fibre is created with only pharmaceutical grade waxes and oils.
