The circular shape of the Earth Round Cross Body ties back to the circles used as symbols in the ancient science of alchemy. The bag features matte gold hardware and a zipper closure. A long shoulder strap can be attached or removed, depending on how you wish to carry the handbag. Inside the bag, you will find four pockets, as well as a strap with a clasp to attach keys to. The exterior of the Earth Round Cross Body is made from premium vegan leather and the interior lining is made from recycled plastic bottles. Alkeme Atelier plants a tree for every bag sold. MATERIAL: Developed by advanced research, Alkeme Atelier's signature vegan leather is responsibly engineered to outperform standard animal leather. While it has a similar appearance to leather, it's cleanable, longer lasting and almost one-third the weight of its animal counterpart. Vegan leather is scratch-resistant, high in strength and water-repellent, making it an immensely durable material. LINING: The handbag's interior lining is made from a polyester created out of recycled plastic bottles and produced in a factory that has Global Recycled Standard certification. Each lining uses about ten plastic bottles, preventing them from becoming ocean pollution or planet waste. By buying this bag you are taking a small step to help keep our oceans and planet clean. DUST BAG: Every handbag comes with a dust bag made from 100% natural and biodegradable bamboo fiber. The antibacterial and odor-free properties of this textile make it the perfect protective layer for your handbag. However, you can also choose to use the dust bag as a shopping bag or reusable tote as each bag has sturdy straps attached to wear over your shoulder. The material is also produced in a factory that has Global Recycled Standard certification.
