European Grain Sack Shawl Collar Chore Jacket Size:S circa 1900Circa 1800's European grain sacks were handwoven on narrow looms using fibers produced on family farms. It would take a weaver one night to produce 60 cm in length. Each family had its own distinctive stripe or stamp to ensure the sacks were returned after grain harvests. Their visible repairs reflect generations of reuse, showcasing durability and resilience. All products are made to order by skilled master craftsmen in our Los Angeles Tailor Shop.
