A Rather Splendid Tote That Actually Does What It Says
Look, we're not ones to oversell, but this handmade cotton tote bag is rather marvellous. Crafted from raw organic cotton and adorned with a genuinely eye-catching patchwork design made from upcycled sari offcuts, it's the sort of bag that manages to be both utterly fetching and genuinely useful. Perfect for the conscientious shopper who refuses to choose between style and substance.
Why Choose Our Sari Patchwork Tote
One-of-a-Kind Artistry: Each bag features a unique patchwork design cut from authentic sari remnants, meaning your tote is genuinely one-off. You won't spot an identical version on the commute, which is rather the point.
Ethically Made: Handcrafted in India using time-honoured techniques and materials sourced with proper consideration for both people and planet. Every purchase supports genuine artisanal craftsmanship.
Beautifully Durable: Made from unbleached organic cotton that's soft yet sturdy enough for daily wear. This isn't a bag that gives up after three trips to the farmers market.
Practically Designed: A slim inner pocket keeps your phone and keys from getting lost in the depths, while the spacious main compartment swallows groceries, books, beach towels, and whatever else you fancy hauling about.
Delightfully Stylish: The vibrant colours and patterns of the sari patchwork add genuine global flair to your everyday look. Rather good conversation starter too.

Note: Each bag's patchwork colours and design vary, as they're crafted from genuine sari offcuts. This means yours will be completely unique, though we do think that's rather the beauty of it.
By choosing this tote, you're investing in proper artisanal craftsmanship whilst helping reduce textile waste. It's more than just a bag, really. It's a bit of a statement about the kind of person you are. The conscientious sort. The one with taste.

SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.

At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS

Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!

Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
