Large Purses

Carry your essentials in style with this stunning purse.  Rich colors and metallic highlights draw your eyes in and through the intricate scrollwork and strong lines.  The dark chocolate dyed border contrasts beautifully with the carefully hand-painted metallic borders.  Gracefully geometric motifs dominate the swirling scrolls.  Every inch of the bag is covered in artwork both traditional and modern.  The natural colors of the leather will only improve with age, as it develops its own unique patina with use and care.  

This beauty is lined in velvet and measures 6.5” across and 2.5” deep. It holds a cell phone (depending on the size) and simple wallet. The double-headed zipper allows you to open it a crack to just slip your phone in or all the way to view the entire contents of your bag.  Buttery-soft deerskin fringe hangs from the zipper and makes opening your purse a stylish breeze.

The detachable wrist strap is also fully-carved and measures 1.5" wide and 17.5" long.

Carry your cards and cash in style.  A simple zippered closure securely protects your money allowing easy access and incredible convenience. An integrated ring allows you to easily snap on your keys, a little fringe, and/or a wrist bangle (the latter two available to purchase separately). 

The leather will develop its own unique patina with use and only get more beautiful over time.

Carry your essentials in style with this unique purse.  Like a rough-out saddle, this purse is carved using the reverse side of the leather.  It can only be accomplished using the best cuts of the hide and is more difficult to draw and carve than the smooth side.  It can be more difficult to keep clean but therein lies the beauty of rough-out.  The natural colors of the leather will only improve with age, as it develops its own unique patina with use and care.
