Description

We finally have swatch books available in our shop so you can see the colors in your lighting and feel the canvas in your hands.

We use two different canvas weights for our Sendaks and Bags. The Sendak canvas is thinner and lighter. The colors vary between the weights, and sometimes we cannot find the same color in both, and sometimes, the 'same' color isn’t the same at all — as in the case of Sweetshrub (Sendak) and Sumac (Bags – coming soon). They are close, but the canvas weight and wax makes the color different enough that we decided to give them different names. 

What is waxed canvas?
 
Waxed Canvas is a cotton canvas with wax embedded into the fibers. The wax darkens the colour of the textile, and makes it water resistant, giving it protection from the elements. It also shows marks of use, giving it the charming rugged look that we were drawn to fifteen years ago when we started Peg and Awl, and continue to love as we use it throughout the years! The wax reflects lighting differently so the range of tone in the photographs reflects the range of tone you may perceive in life. The colors may vary slightly from batch to batch because they are hand dyed. The wax will fade with use and the color of the bag will lighten and evolve. We love all of this. Your bags will change through use, giving each one a one-of-a-kind patina with the stories and marks from your life!
