Melanie Hazel 1976 Waxed Canvas Pencil Case

C$59.75
2 In stock
Waxed canvas is woven cotton that has been impregnated with a wax finish. This makes the cloth water resistant, stronger and more durable. This technique dates back as far as the early 1800’s and used by the sailing industry. 11.25” x 1.5” x 4.5”

From sketching to painting supplies this case will certainly tickle its owner. (Or, fill this case with other items. A great, practical gift for anyone, really.) It will blemish naturally from your travels, giving it a unique, rugged appearance. This handmade item has an inner cotton peek-a-boo lining and a metal teeth zipper. What you decide to keep in this case is up to you. Good luck deciding...

P.S - Due to the wax finish, spot clean only with a cool damp cloth and do not put this item in the dryer. This case is meant to be loved, not washed.

11.25” x 1.5” x 4.5”
