On The Rag
At the risk of sounding crass, WTF is this thing? My grandmother had a similar cloth bag like this; she used it to store her teapot. Same handle and everything. It costs around $40 for a nice one in Chinatown. I’m not going to discuss the fact that this cotton-canvas pouch comes with a nearly [...]
