CHAT Originals Hong Kong Busy Bee Multipurpose Pouch

HK$410 | Purchase Here

Inspired by CHAT’s special display ‘Patternways: Visualising Hong Kong in Transition’, this utility pouch reinvigorates a traditional weaving design found in the archives of Mayar Silk Mills, Hong Kong’s first silk weaving factory, courtesy of graphic designer John Wu. Working with a local label-weaving factory, the original pattern was recoloured and jacquard-woven, then assembled into a utility pouch.

The recreation of the design and its weaving process through a label-making factory, an industry with roots in silk weaving, recounts an important but often overlooked story of Hong Kong’s silk industry. This multipurpose pouch is a fun yet educational lifestyle product for textile lovers and trendsetters alike.
