The Burmese version of a Lavender or Cedarwood Bag - Agarwood Bags
Made from offcut fabrics, these tiny pyramid agarwood bags are the Burmese equivalent of lavender bags. It is a lovely, subtle, fresh smell. Pop them in your sock drawer, nestle them amongst your cashmere, gift them to a friend.
We adore these; they give life to unused fabrics, prolong the life of clothes at risk of being munched by moths and are lovely little gems to give away.
They come in lots of colours and patterns. We will send you a design at random, but if you would like a specific one or selection, please include a note in the box at checkout.

Home is at the heart of Kalinko, the social enterprise bringing the best of Burmese craftsmanship into your living spaces.
The high quality and beauty of these homewares turns everyday items into something to cherish, from boho-style rattan furniture to hand-chiselled marble bathroom accessories.
Each Kalinko piece takes days, or even weeks, to make. They use the phrase “slow homeware” to describe the steady, age-old techniques their crafters use to create these long-lasting and sustainable items.
The artisans are based in villages right across Burma, with Kalinko working with around 300 small craft families.
38% of families in Burma live off $300 a month, yet the cost of adequate nutrition, healthcare and education is $750 a month. Kalinko aims to close this gap for its makers, reducing their need to rely on unskilled farming work to supplement their income.
Every piece you buy from them ensures these artisans get the fair pay their skills deserve. It’s a mission that makes their stunning homewares an even more meaningful addition to your home.
