Passport - Bag Charm

A tiny needlepoint passport, stitched cover and all, for the bag that actually goes places.

Travel charms work because the bag they hang on is the one thing that comes with you the whole trip. This one clips on with a lobster clasp, so it moves from a work tote to a carry-on to a beach bag without any fuss, and it also makes a personal carry-on easier to spot on a crowded gate agent's cart.

The needlepoint face has real texture, which reads as considered rather than souvenir, and it will not scratch a leather bag when it swings against it.

Buy it for the friend with the trip already booked, the one who keeps threatening to go, or as the small piece of a bigger travel gift. Cluster it with the postcard and the taxi cab for a full set.
