This bag is the perfect size for daily use, the meditating Llama is the cutest thing and makes me smile every time I look at it. The bag is well made with quality materials and looks like it will last a long long time. The strap is super long which is fantastic as I am tall and chubby. Finding a crossbody bag I can actually wear comfortably as a crossbody is difficult as most straps arent long enough for me. This is just perfect, the length, the size of the bag, everything. Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you!!

I just got back from Cusco, Peru. I bought beautiful pillow covers but wanted a few more authentic handwoven items. I KNOW this purse is authentic, and it is well made. I visited weaving cooperatives and recognize the natural colors and designs. It has a sturdy lining and a nice inside pocket with zipper. I use it for my everyday purse, I like the size. I dont like a big purse. It is important to me that the weavers of the Peruvian Andes get support to continue weaving. Tourists have not returned to this area and these traditions will be lost. Plus it is a beautiful purse with rich colors.

This bag is beautifully made - and is the perfect size for everything I need to carry everyday. The different textures and colors work well together. I like smaller, lightweight purses and this one is perfect size for me. This is my second purchase from Kathiana.
