Bagatelle Linen Beach Bag

A large, beach-sized, linen bag. This bag features a comfortable linen strap that is long enough to drape over your shoulder, yet short enough to carry by hand without touching the ground. Easy to carry and incredibly durable, it is also fully biodegradable at the end of its life. We only sell products that we personally use, and this bag stands out as a favorite that we use every day.

Crafted from 100% pure linen, the bag measures approximately 19 x 27.5 inches. Linen, made from flax, is an environmentally friendly material, requiring only a fifth of the energy and water needed to cultivate and process cotton. In addition to being 40 times more absorbent than cotton, linen dries faster and boasts several unique qualities. It is hypoallergenic, resistant to moths (making it suitable for heirloom preservation), and has antiseptic properties that make it resistant to bacteria and fungus. Linen is also lint-free, which is ideal for wiping glassware without streaks, and should be rolled when stored to avoid permanent creases.

Furthermore, linen has a tensile strength three times that of cotton and wool, making it an incredibly durable material. It is non-static and softens with each wash, ensuring continued comfort over time. The natural silica in flax fiber also protects linen against rotting, adding to its longevity.
