Cork As Sutainable Fashion Material

Cork As Sutainable Fashion Material

By Piers Fawkes on May 1, 2008

We had a lovely lunch with Swissmiss earlier this week – if you’re looking for a fresh and original design and ideas blog to gather inspiration from, you can’t go anywhere better. She posts about products like this – a handbag that uses cork to enhance its sustainable credentials. She says:

Renewable, sustainable cork bag with raspberry organic cotton & hemp detailing. A cork bag? Now, that’s something new. Wheee! But hey, years ago I heard the rumor that the world is running out of cork. I guess not.
