Compass Bag – Black Cork
Includes a curated list of recommended materials. Select and add only what you need.
A timeless, sophisticated take on the Compass Bag by Noodlehead, featuring a rich combination of black cork, warm antique bronze hardware, and contrasting beige details.
The exterior is made with Black Cork Fabric, giving the bag beautiful natural texture and a polished look. Contrasting beige topstitching highlights the construction and adds just the right amount of detail against the black exterior.
For this version, we added a My Handmade Space studio customization to the strap, incorporating antique bronze grommets and gate rings for an eye-catching hardware detail that complements the clean lines of the bag.
Inside, Beige Water-Resistant Canvas (WRC) creates a durable, easy-care lining while coordinating beautifully with the contrasting topstitching.
