The repurposed burlap in this item is from a Nicaragua shipping sack that was once used to transport coffee beans. There may be uneven printing and inconsistencies in the weave of the fabric. Burlap is made from natural plant fibers. It has a rustic look and feel, is biodegradable and may shed. This measures about 16 x 16 inches and 2 inches deep. It is a simple unlined tote bag. Maybe for a farmers market or shopping bag. It could be a unique way to wrap a gift or just to hang on a peg on a wall for decor. I welcome questions before purchase, so please ask. Spot clean recommended.
