Handloom Striped Apron
Handloom Striped Apron

A quality, handmade apron should be in every baker's kitchen. The Handloom Striped Apron is carefully crafted on a loom by fair trade artisans in India who are master weavers. The care and detail are evident, making it very different from a factory-made apron. Featuring earth tones of olive green, gray, khaki and cream, a large front pocket, adjustable neck ties with D rings and a long waist tie. This hardy apron makes a wonderful gift, as each one comes in a drawstring gift bag.
