The Celeste Toile Day Tote
Timeless elegance meets everyday versatility in The Celeste Toile All Day Tote. Inspired by the soft, ethereal hues of a clear morning sky, Celeste—French for "heavenly"—perfectly captures the delicate beauty of this pale blue toile fabric. The intricate print, a nod to classic French textiles, tells a story of tradition and craftsmanship, making this tote as much a work of art as it is a practical companion.
Whether you're heading to the farmer’s market, commuting to work, or packing for a quick overnight getaway, this spacious tote is designed to carry it all. Groceries, workout essentials, office documents—whatever your day holds, this bag keeps you stylishly prepared.
Crafted with thoughtful details, the Celeste Toile All Day Tote features sturdy dark mahogany leather handles, secured with solid copper rivets for durability and character. The interior is lined with a water-repellent canvas, ensuring your belongings stay protected, while a large interior pocket keeps your wallet, phone, and glasses within easy reach. For added functionality, an interior brass ring is included to secure your keys. Every seam is carefully bound for extra strength, ensuring this bag will be a favorite for years to come.
Handmade with care in our small New York workshop, this tote is not just an everyday essential—it’s a statement of style, craftsmanship, and timeless design.

Frequently Asked Questions
When Will My Order Ship?
Most orders ship within 2 days. In the case of bags and travel accessories, these items are made-to-order and may take up to 5 - 7 days to ship. We will advise of any delays. Please let us know if you have questions. Feel free to write directly info@generalknot.com or use the contact form below.
What Is Made-To-Order?
Quite literally, our bags and travel accessories are individually cut and sewn when an order is placed. Nothing is mass produced and stocked in a warehouse. This method takes a little more time on our end, but it ensures that each piece gets the attention it deserves and is shipped in perfect condition.
Where Do You Source Your Fabrics?
We source our fabrics from all over the world. Since we are a "small batch" producer, we tend to work with very small mills or collectors of specialty and vintage textiles.
Where Are General Knot Products Produced?
All General Knot products are made here in the U.S.A. Bags and small goods are made in our in-house studio. Neckwear is produced in a number of small factories in the Northeast.
