Walking By The River

This slim cross body bag by Elizabeth Bond has been marbled and painted with leather acrylics. The bag is made from vegetable tanned leather that has been wet moulded to help shape the bag. The colours used on this bag are purple, turquoise, orange and white.

The bag has some hand stitching on the base to help keep your bits and pieces secure. The bag is held closed by a Sam Browne stud. The leather can be a little stiff on a new bag so don't be afraid to give this a good push. 

The bag strap is fully adjustable and removable, held in place by two lobster clasps, that clip to two 'D' rings. The strap is 2.5cm wide and the length can be adjusted from 118cm to 160cm.  The strap has two keepers. The hardware on this bag is nickel. There is an additional fixed strap that holds the 'D' rings in place that can also be used to hold the bag with your hand as a clutch bag.

The bag itself is 15cm high, 21cm wide and 3cm in depth. The bag is unlined. The designers name is stamped on the back of the purse.

The nature of this hand made product means that there will be occasional paint residues and tool marks that are all part of the hand made process. This adds character and means your bag is truly unique.
