Description
Discover a truly unique accessory with our Trowbridge Painted Buildings Zipped Pouch. This beautifully crafted pouch is a testament to both local artistry and community spirit. It features a striking printed fabric, meticulously designed in-house, showcasing a curated selection of Trowbridge’s architectural gems. These images are faithfully reproduced from oil paintings within our museum’s collection, creating a usable piece of local history. The fabric’s background, also derived from these paintings, adds an extra layer of depth and authenticity.
The pouch is thoughtfully constructed with a sturdy cotton calico backing, a durable zip closure, and a fully lined interior of polycotton, ensuring both functionality and longevity. Each pouch is a unique piece, as the design is carefully cut to capture different segments of the painted building collage. As such, your pouch will be randomly chosen from our current selection, adding an element of surprise to your purchase. A special label inside proudly proclaims its creation by our dedicated ‘Museum Makers’ volunteers, right here in our museum. Made with 100% cotton patterned and backing fabrics, and a polycotton lining, this pouch measures approximately 22cm by 15cm – the perfect size for your daily essentials.
