Hand-carved. Each piece comes from a small family of related motifs — yours may differ from the one shown.
DISCLAIMER
The carved motif on each model belongs to a small family of hand-cut designs — close in spirit, never identical. The piece you receive is chosen from that family and may differ from the one photographed. This is the nature of work cut by hand, not printed.
Description
A compact crossbody for everyday carry — a front flap pocket sits over a zip-top main compartment, sized for the essentials and little else. The adjustable strap wears across the body or short on the shoulder, and a slim wrist loop lets you carry it in the hand when you'd rather.
The sealed sheep-leather body is supple and soft to the hand, easing further the more it is carried, while the buffalo-leather flower is semi-sealed and left to patina at its own pace — so the body and its carved detail settle along slightly different lines over the years.

Care
Cared for simply, this piece will only grow more beautiful with time. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth to lift everyday dust, and keep it away from direct sunlight and heat, which draw the natural oils from the leather. Should it meet the rain, blot the moisture — never rub — and let it air-dry, well away from any heat.
Every month or so, work a small amount of neutral leather conditioner into the grain to keep it supple. At rest, store the piece in its dust bag, loosely filled with acid-free tissue to hold its shape; never seal leather in plastic, as it must be allowed to breathe.
With wear, the leather will soften and gain character — deepening gently in tone over time. This is not damage, but patina: the quiet record of a piece well lived with.
