Beautiful bags for everyday and weekend use

• The Weekend Bag is made from a combination of linen and cotton with a zip closure and an elegant, detailed lining.
• Dark Pouch Bag: The woven piece is 100% wool, while the bag itself is made from recycled denim. The back pocket functions as a practical inner pocket.
• Light Pouch Bag: Woven from cotton and effect yarn, combined with recycled denim. The back pocket is used as a functional inner pocket.
• Shoulder Bag: Woven in pure wool, featuring a zipper and a hand-knotted shoulder strap for a unique and stylish expression.

Pia runs her own weaving studio in Silkeborg, which she has named Textum. According to Pia, the name means "My Textile Playground". She offers weaving classes and has exhibited her own works at renowned art institutions - such as Trapholt in Kolding.

Pia states, "I weave utilitarian art because the joy of a good and beautiful piece of fabric is great. When I choose the quality of the yarns I want to weave with, it's important that quality and utility go hand in hand. When I sit at the loom or with the weaving frame, time becomes a funny thing, because it flies by - even though the weaving itself is a slow craft. In this process, thoughts can flow and new ideas for the next project can emerge."
