About

An important aspect of Wren is that everything is done with sustainability in mind and with nature as the inspiration. For example, the Coffee Bags are all made from the sacks that carry coffee beans around the world. Once they reach their destination and the beans have been roasted, they have no more use. I always try and use natural and organic fabrics where I can  – the Coffee Sling & Shoulder Bags are 100% organic – no zips or anything like that. The Antique Linen & Leather bags are as natural as possible with the linen being homespun and handwoven. I also try to keep waste to a minimum and use the left-over pieces of coffee sack for Coffee Clutches and off-cuts of fabric from previous ranges for Bird Purses.

I believe that a bag is a reflection of who you are and thus, each one is unique by it’s combination of fabrics and in the case of the coffee bags, well each fair trade coffee sack is unique by it’s number, print and design. Originality of these bags does not need to be made, it’s just there.

Simply put, Wren tries to make your life simpler, organised and wonderful. I hope you can find a Wren bag that like I found, is that ‘perfect’ bag you were always looking for.
