GARY BOUGHT A HANDBAG by sangwann

GARY BOUGHT A HANDBAG

Gary (GaryW ace) bought a handbag when he came to the cork factory but I liked this cork hat most. I didn't buy anything though.
Amazing how the cork industry is changing to stay up to requirements in modern circumstances. They still depend on cork stoppers but are producing more innovative items for the market to keep them going.
I was amazed at how from this fragile tree bark they could make delicate items like this and Gary's handbag.

Many thanks for looking and for your lovely comments on yesterday's picture.
Like the hat Very smart!!

A very nice hat. I've seen lots of cork items in Madeira, too, quite a productive industry in Portugal

That's so interesting- I wonder what it feels like to wear it- rather light-weight I would think. Good shot!
