This tote bag is not only a practical accessory but also a piece of "walkable art" that allows you to carry an iconic symbol of the beauty of Halifax with you wherever you go. The sketch is part of a collection that includes various urban sketches and art prints inspired by different locations, making it a special and personalized item for those who appreciate function, art and travel.

Care instructions: To keep your canvas bag looking its best, wash it with cool water and a mild detergent. This gentle approach helps preserve the integrity of the material. After washing, simply hang the bags to dry naturally. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals, as they can compromise the fabric's quality. To prolong the lifespan of your canvas bag, it's advisable to store them in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures, as these factors can cause fading and deterioration over time.

Let customers speak for us
I am a huge fan of lobster print and local pottery so this combined them both! I love the dimple for holding the cup, it feels so natural in my hand. I have been using it for both wine and other cold drinks so that I have an excuse to use it every day
Cute enclosure cards are just right when you need a little something to put with a small gift - be it a hostess gift, birthday gift or whatever. Many different options to choose from.
And the design- chefs kiss
I liked the drawing and graphic colors right away.......The glib can of tuna with one candle........as a Birthday gift............And the recipient liked it as well as they has two felines...........I would have truly liked it even more - if it had been made locally, or at least provincially.......by graphics/print artists who merit support in this City/Province.....
My daughter will love this! She lives in Charlottetown and this will be special to her. Its beautiful, bright and so special! Thank You
Great bag for travelling or daily shopping. Large and roomy. Sturdy.
I love the RH card with the pomegranates. Especially this year, a year after the worst attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust,it wa s very meaningful to be able to find and send cards for the Jewish new year - this one is very sweet and I was so happy to have it to send to special people in my life - thank you!
Cute and colourful - meant to give it away as a gift but kept it instead!
Purchased as a gift and my sister adored it. Nice attention to detail - very soft and cute!
Without a doubt every purchase I make at Inkwell impresses friends and family with the best of the best in the Maritimes. I love supporting local artists (these tri-folds are a top favourite) and this beautiful store makes it extra easy to access the most beautiful pieces.
