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 structured shoulder bag with a clean rectangular body and two rolled top handles, made for someone who wants presence without bulk. A detachable, adjustable strap takes it from hand-carry to crossbody through the day.
The front panel is framed by leather lacing braided entirely by hand, with a floral rosette tooled by hand at its center — carved into the leather rather than printed or pressed, so no two read exactly alike. The body is sealed to resist everyday marks and will soften and warm gently with use, while the tooled panel is left semi-sealed, so the carved detail deepens and gains character over time.

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.
