It's Sale Time! We're selling off a lot of our stock for the New Year, to make a fresh start. In a couple of weeks, you'll see a lot of changes here at Plum E. but for now we're just going to sell off some of the stock, and for that reason You Won't Find Prices Like This Anywhere Else. Or find your favourite normal-price bag by choosing from the gallery above, or the menu, top-left, or the search box. Or maybe just email us, if you can't see what you want.
What's this 'Ethical' Thingy?
The idea of Plum Ethical is to gather together some really special handbags and man-bags. They're special not just because they're gorgeous, they're also 'ethical' in some way. This means they might be animal-free, crafted sustainably from recycled materials, or fair-trade. Mostly, they are all three.
Feel free to contact us if you have and special concerns that you'd like to discuss with us before buying, we'd love to hear from you.

PRESS RELEASE July 1st, 2009: [for immediate release]
"Plum Ethical are really proud and excited to present their first collection of leather-free handbags, eco friendly bags and other ethical products.
"Discover beautiful eco bags, including purses and handbags and designer recycled bags.
"Plum Ethical also has a cool little range of man bags from 'vegetarian leather' messenger bags to mens bags crafted from re-claimed inner tubes.
"Our eco bags are produced by crest-of-the-wave ethical bag designers including E&KO, Neumatica, PlanetSilverChilli, and The Rubber Cow Co. Each bag, except the Rubber Cow bags, is crafted from sustainable fabric including non-leather, rubber, recycled firehoses and even ring pulls - ethical bags have never looked this desirable"
Finally, if you're looking for baby change bags, you'll find it hard to get a truly ethical bag. Our sister company does what it can, with a range of non-leather bags, and succeeds more than you might expect. Click the link to see their range of baby changing bags. Or please tell us if you've found (or sell) any full-on ethical baby changing bags, because we want to start selling them too, and there's basically nothing out there at the moment.
