These luxurious lined cosmetic bag with tasseled zip is a good size to hold your cosmetics and bathroom products.  

The pretty pink design features the Pohutukawa in bloom.  There is a bright red Pohutukawa design and a crisp green Manuka design.

The early Pacific Landscape design has an interesting story to it. In 1804, Joseph Dufour created Les Sauvages de la Mer Pacifique, a sophisticated 20-panel scenic wallpaper whose exotic subject matter referenced popular illustrations of the times and mirrored a widespread fascination with Captain Cook and de la Perouse Pacific voyages. It was very fashionable in its time.

Two centuries later Lisa Reihana, a New Zealand artist, reanimated this popular wallpaper as a panoramic video spanning a width of 26 meters.  Her interpretation of the interaction between the two cultures is somewhat different.  She reveals the complexities of cultural identities and colonisation.  The work, called in Pursuit of Venus [infected] represented New Zealand at the Venice Biennale 2017.

These cosmetic bags are made from a micro-fiber polyester velvet.  They are easy to clean with just a damp cloth. They measure 17 x 23cm and make a lovely, practical gift.

*the green manuka and the red Pohutukawa bags have sturdy hooks on the edges of the zip that you have attached a strap to and turn these cosmetic bags into a handbag.
