DESCRIPTION
Stella McCartney "Falabella" tote bag is crafted from scaleembossed UPPEAL™, a vegan alternative to animal leather made from apple waste. This unique material combines apple waste leather with fabric, offering a sustainable and stylish choice. By using the waste of apples grown for the juice and jam industries, UPPEAL™ taps into industrial symbiosis - repurposing local food waste as a resource. The waste - including leftover pulp, skins, and seeds that are otherwise sent to landfill or burned - is recovered by Bolzanobased Frumat and dehydrated and ground into Frumat Apple Powder. The powder is then used by Mabel Industries to substitute oil and other fossil fuel derivatives, combined with polyurethane for durability and coated onto a canvas to create UPPEAL™. Chain top handles with logo charm Chain shoulder/crossbody strap Can be worn as a top handle or shoulder/crossbody bag Open top with magnetic closure Interior, one slip pocket Approx. 9.3"H x 10.4"W x 3.9"D Polyester/cotton Spot clean Made in Italy
