Mini Boat Tote Charm – Customisable
This is our miniature take on the iconic American boat tote bag.
One of the earliest and most recognisable versions was the L.L.Bean Boat and Tote, introduced in 1944 and originally designed as a sturdy ice carrier. Since then, countless variations have appeared, from heritage outdoor brands to more recent cult favourites such as Trader Joe's.
We decided to make our own version in miniature and these are the very first charms we've produced. Each one can be customised with a monogram and, while created using our digital embroidery machine, every piece is meticulously handcrafted through a multi-stage process of hand-feeding, cutting, shaping, and sewing.
Made using vintage 1920s recycled linen, alongside wooden and ceramic beads.
Produced in small batches and released in limited drops.
Grab one while you can.

All our pieces are handcrafted and chain-stitched in the studio. Because of the time and care invested, custom or personalised items, like those featuring names, word choices, custom modifications or bespoke colourways, cannot be returned or cancelled once production begins.
For ready-made, non-personalised designs (patches, framed pieces without customisation options), we accept returns within 14 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in their original condition, and packaged as received.
If you're unhappy with your order for any reason, whether bespoke or ready-made, please get in touch. We'll do our best to find a solution and make it right.
