These fabrics originate from grain sacks that were produced over 100 years ago on European farms. Each grain sack was handwoven from hemp and decorated with a distinctive pattern of stripes and a few with hand-stitched monograms, in order to show which farm it belonged to.
These textiles are by nature extremely eco- friendly as they were naturally made from homegrown materials, home retted (in local lakes and ponds) and woven together by hand. The average age of these textiles is around 100 years old woven with linen, hemp, cotton or a combination of the three.
What we do at GOVOU is to reinterpret the use of these fabrics.
Artisanally crafted with an unwavering focus on precision, this bag is tailored for the discerning individual who appreciates both exclusivity and environmental consciousness in their fashion selections.
