The PIHKA waste bag assembled from high-quality surplus leather from our production is perfect for DIY crafts and making other small products! The size of the surplus PIHKA waste bag for sale is a medium-sized paper bag.
We have chosen leather as the main material for PIHKA products, because it is a versatile, durable and timeless material. Leather is a by-product of cattle farming and all the leather we use is high-quality European leather. The leather used in PIHKA bags is 1.4-1.8 mm thick and feels quite soft. The sizes of the pieces vary, but they are usually about 10 x 10 cm to 30 x 30 cm in size.
Leather is a versatile material for various small and large crafts and handicrafts. In addition to bags, there are unlimited different uses for leather, for example in interior design for kitchen door handles or DIY jewelry.
Each piece bag is unique, as it is assembled from leftover pieces created during the production of PIHKA bags. Most of the leather in the bags is brown and black, but there are also pieces of leather in other colors. Various surface patterns and marks, such as scars, are characteristic of leather and belong to the nature of the material.
When well cared for, leather is an almost eternal material!
It is important to us that your PIHKA bag stays with you year after year. All our products are handmade in Finland, in Helsinki or Sastamala. Our leather comes from European factories that are audited by the Leather Working Group. For sewing, we use water-repellent Serafil Wre (water-repellent and ecofriendly) polyester thread, which does not contain harmful chemicals.
Our products have a lifetime warranty for wearable metal parts. We also offer maintenance service for all our products.

Before applying conditioners to your leather product, brush loose material from the surface with a soft brush or damp cloth and treat the surface with a leather cleaner. We recommend ecological FAMACO cleaning foam or Saphir leather cleaning emulsion for cleaning. The substance is spread evenly on the surface of the leather with a natural sponge or a soft cloth, the excess substance is removed and allowed to dry. The surface is finished with a leather brush or cloth.
After cleaning, protect the leather surface with FAMACO protective spray or FAMACO leather care agent. In both care products that provide moisture and protection, the substance is sprayed or spread evenly on the surface of the leather with the help of a soft cloth. Allow to dry carefully. After treatment, the surface is still polished with a leather brush or cloth.

PIHKA CRETIFIED -LEATHER
"I have two PIHKA bags and one wallet, and I couldn't be happier with your products. Your products are of high quality, timeless in design, and they hold an incredible amount of stuff. I use the bags almost every day and they haven't gone bad, even though I've had the other one for several years. I used to buy bargain bags once in a while, but since I found yours, I haven't bought any others. I hope you keep up the great work for years to come."
"Today I took my cognac TREFFEN bag with me on a work trip. It has served as a work bag, carry-on luggage on weekend trips and as an everyday savior when I have to carry everything from snacks to toys with me."
"Thank you for the wonderful bags! The black HUPI has been in daily use for the third year and is still like new. Suitable for everyday life and parties."

MADE JUST FOR YOU
We recently conducted a survey that received 984 responses. As many as 85% of the respondents recommend us. We think this is due to what everything in the PIHKA collection comes together.
PIHKA is also durable in its design and aesthetics, and that is why you want to take care of it. The bag becomes a dear companion, and you don't want to abandon your life partner, but on the contrary to guard, protect and love.
Our leather comes from Europe, from operators recognized as progressive. We have also tried other materials, but leather has proven to be more durable and maintainable.
PIHKA is made nearby in Finland - in Sastamala or in our own work premises in Helsinki. Our unique handprint is created by choosing traditions, and at the same time looking for and experimenting with new things. Handmade beauty caresses the soul - just try it!
