ABOUT THE OCHRE ARTIST BAG What is the Ochre artist bag? Ochre is a grounded, timeless canvas tool bag designed for creative makers who draw inspiration from raw, authentic materials. Featuring 27 total pockets (18 external + 9 exclusive internal compartments), this multi-pocket artist bag combines deep charcoal canvas with rich mustard handles for complete studio and field organisation.
Designed in Byron Bay by a working ceramicist, Ochre addresses everyday creative challenges: finding tools instantly during creative flow, protecting handmade implements, and transporting supplies effortlessly without stress.
INNOVATIVE DUAL-POCKET SYSTEM How does the pocket organisation work? Our unique dual-pocket system sets Ochre apart from standard pottery bags and generic artist totes: • 18 External Pockets: Quick-access outer pockets engineered for tools you reach for constantly—pottery trimming tools, paintbrushes, pencils, and sculpting instruments. • 9 Exclusive Internal Compartments: Unlike competing tool bags, our taller internal compartments remain open at the bottom to provide true vertical storage. Tools stand upright and fully visible. Perfect for wooden ribs, long brushes, rolling pins, or holding containers filled with small tools.
GENEROUS CENTRAL SPACE What fits inside the central compartment? The wide, open-top central compartment provides instant visual access—no zippers to fumble with when your hands are covered in clay, paint, or glaze. Fits:
-
Our custom wooden pottery Tool Rack
-
Tablets (up to 11") and Laptops (up to 13")
-
A4 sketchbooks and large nature journals
-
Small wedging boards, clay blocks, and water bottles

Featuring reinforced seams and double-stitching at key stress points, it stands upright on a wide, stable base. Pre-washed canvas ensures a soft feel from day one with minimal shrinkage.
