Product Description
So we have a quilted silk habotai cosmetic bag (#SCBH) but we gathered from customers that the quilting makes it a little difficult to paint and dye. So, we had a new little bag made for us without the quilting. We think they are both fantastic in their own way, but we love to provide you with options.
Made from 100% silk habotai, sewn with silk thread, with a zipper along one long edge. At 5” by about 9”, this little bag is goldilocks (perfect, not too big, not too small). Great as a small handbag, cosmetic case, carrying case for big sunglasses, whatever.
Made in: CHINA (CN)

I had high hopes for these, but have been utterly disappointed. The zippers are terrible. They don't close completely once they've been unzipped. The zippers (and the fabric the nylon coil zipper is on...) stayed bright white when they were dyed. Out of a dozen dyed, only 3 zip completely, 6 don't zip completely and have 1/2-inch of zipper fabric sticking out, and 3 don't zip at all - no matter how hard I tug. These were all dyed with procion dyes (soda ash method). Maybe they're better if you just use them white?

A little stiffer than I would prefer, zipper could be better quality too. What would be really nice is if the zipper had an opening for attaching a decorative piece to the pull. It would really help dress up the painted bags, and the current pull is tiny and hard to grasp.
The price is right though, and once painted- they really do look great!

BUYER BEWARE - I didn't read these reviews and I guess I should have. So far 25% of the zippers are bad.

Very soft silk, dyed beautifully. Zipper nicely sewn into the bag.

I prewashed the silk to dye and 2 of the 4 zippers just crumbled and fell off. Very disappointed.

I agree with several of the other comments about the zippers. Part of the zipper tape sticks out or bulges causing the bags to look cheep. I have dyed a dozen of them and the zippers all look tacky.

Excellent value, planning to dye this, as I like the way Dharma habotai takes dye.

Great bags - a little larger than I really needed. Take the dyes nicely.

Were not what I thought. I can't use for original purpose intended. Can I return them?

good product except the zipper on one of the bags did not zip up all the way. otherwise the bags take dye well, make sure that you remember to dye the inside lining if you are painting the dye on.
