Tie-Dye Cotton Tote Bag 6oz 38x42x12cm Black Handle

A cotton tote bag for the market run, the library trip, and the quiet habit of carrying a little more beauty with you. The tie-dye mandala pattern brings colour and softness to everyday errands, while the cotton fabric keeps the feel simple and natural.

The colour and feel in the hand

• The cotton has a soft, flexible feel, suited to daily carrying rather than stiff structure.
• The mandala design gives the bag a centred, decorative focus without feeling formal.
• The tie-dye finish means each bag has its own small variations in pattern and tone.
• It works as a reusable cotton tote bag for errands, books, light shopping or a few beach-day essentials.
• The handles keep the look clean and practical, so the pattern remains the main visual detail.

Cotton with a tie-dye finish

Made from cotton, this tote sits in SHAMTAM’s Tie-Dye Cotton Bags range. The fabric is listed as 6oz cotton, giving it a lighter everyday character rather than the dense feel of a heavy canvas shopper.

The mandala design

The mandala motif has long been used in Hindu and Buddhist visual traditions as a circular symbol of wholeness, focus and ordered beauty. Here it becomes a simple design language for daily life: a patterned cotton bag that feels more personal than a plain shopper, without turning a practical carry-all into something overly precious.

Carrying it day to day

Use it as a just-in-case tote folded inside another bag, or keep it by the door for groceries, notebooks and small daily essentials. It is best treated as an everyday cotton bag, not as a rigid or waterproof holdall.

Care for the colour

For printed or dyed cotton textiles, gentle care helps preserve the colour. Wash cool with a mild detergent, avoid wringing, and let it dry flat or in the shade. If ironing is needed, iron on the reverse on a moderate setting.

Size and details

Measures 38 x 42 x 12 cm, with a 34 cm handle length. The bag weighs 160 g and is made in India from cotton.

A thoughtful everyday gift

A useful gift for someone who likes practical pieces with a little colour and symbolism. It suits students, market regulars, readers, travellers and anyone who prefers a reusable bag with more character than a plain tote.

Common questions

Will every bag look exactly the same?
No. The tie-dye technique creates natural variation, so each bag will have its own pattern character.

Can it be folded into another bag?
Yes. As a flexible cotton tote, it can be folded and kept inside a larger bag for errands and unplanned shopping.
