-Tubu (土布) is a hand-woven cotton fabric from Chongming Island, Shanghai, with over 600 years of history. Our fabric dates from the 1960s–80s — much of it woven by women as part of their trousseau, set aside for decades before finding its way to us.
-We work with these surviving textiles to give them a new life. Every bag is one-of-a-kind: because each family's loom was a different width, dimensions vary slightly, and some pieces carry the faint marks of age — part of the cloth's story.
-Tightly hand-woven, naturally dyed, and made to last.
