Carved bags from tube

Young Italian designer Silvia Massacesi has chosen the theme of their graduation project production of bags made of eco-friendly materials. The designer has opted for a traffic jam, industrial waste which formed the basis for the creation of a new cork material, which is characterized by greater strength and flexibility, while maintaining the original water-repellent characteristics of the tube. Thread on recycled tube allowed to decorate the bag with colored patterns made from recycled paper that was processed with natural resin to protect from moisture and increase durability. Lining eco-bags are hand-crafted from organic cotton and hemp. The first collection of a novice fashion designer Silvia Massacesi has won several awards in Italy, including Eco-Vogue talents.
