I recently completed this cross body purse for a customer in Florida. I was pretty happy with the result as was the client. The purse is tooled in a feather design with a dove to one side. The photo really doesn’t do the design justice, but you get the idea. If you are questioning the background of the photo, the wife and I are staying in our 5th wheel while getting our house ready to sell. I have moved my saddle shop to a spot just outside of Turner Oregon.
100 percent leather produced here in the USA
The exterior rear panel is in basket weave pattern. The purse is designed to either run over the shoulder or around the waist. The tooled portion is constructed of three ounce Hermann Oak vegetable tanned processed here in the USA. The gusset is oak tanned goat skin which is very soft and pliable.
The inner compartments
The inner portion of the handbag consists of two fully loaded compartments. Both compartments are fully lined with a soft lavender leather. The larger compartment is designed to carry a wallet and the daily necessities while out and about. The smaller compartment is for a cell phone. Due to the larger phones available these days, I made this compartment extra roomy.
You will note that the photo above showing the rear panel, the two D rings for the attachment of the shoulder/waist strap. I will in the future move the D rings up to the corners to give more flexibility as to how the purse can be used/carried.
Three ways to comfortably carry your bag
The shoulder strap shown above is fully adjustable. Depending upon just how you would like to carry it. You have three options, remove the strap and carry as a handbag, carry the bag much as you would a fannie pack or across the body, I.E. over one shoulder.
In Closing...
The end design is very flexible. I have a number of different tooling patterns, colors of leather and type of leather. The interior can be designed to meet your needs with little or no cost increase.
