Essendine School Tote Bag

About the Tote Bag

Have your very own limited edition Tote Bag made from recycled Royal Parks deckchair canvases. Our stunning Tote Bags are perfect for whisking to the shops, carrying your books and papers, or wandering with your picnic to the Park!

The Totes have been lovingly handmade in Somerset by expert craftsmen under the Bill Amberg name. The long, strong, leather handles are pit-tanned in one of the last remaining pit tanneries in the UK and end in brass and leather-trimmed rings. Your bag may show reflections of its former life outdoors in the Parks – which is, of course, all part of its charm!

Essendine School

The pupils focused on close-up detail rather than a whole tree, to create a bark design with moveable creatures on top. Textures were very important, so we used the technique of listening to music to encourage mark-making. The next step was to draw just a section of bark and change its colours to make it even more interesting. The finishing touch was making cut-out creatures to move around the bark.
