Naveh Milo Eco Friendly Bags
Naveh Milo shopping bags are made on the outskirts of Medan, Indonesia, by a women's cooperative. By employing local women, and those who have travelled inland from Tsunami affected regions, Naveh Milo is making a positive impact on both the local, and wider community.

I am Sarah Jones, age 63, retired professor of History of Art. All my life I have taught the History of Art of Asia and South-east Asia to thousands of my students but still I just fail to understand how some women whose lives have been devastated by a Tsunami could make such delightful objects! You see, this bag is pure art, and I am glad that I own one.
When I first saw this bag your website, I was a bit suspicious about its authenticity. It was supposed to be made with natural flowers and foliage, and it was beyond my imagination that a bag made by pasting natural dried flowers and leaves could be as sturdy as any handbag. It seemed to be faux flowers or a good print at best. So I wasn’t ready for such a pleasant surprise when I got my hands on it. It was far more beautiful than the photograph in your website, and tough as well! I cannot tell you how many compliments I have got for it.
