This is one of many items I have purchased from Ms. Sanchez, including a cell phone bag, a coin purse, a wall hanging, and a pencil case . She is an extremely talented and imaginative artisan. I love her title and the couple she has put on the bag loving their mountains and each other. Her portrayal of the beauty of her country delights me and makes me wish I could visit Peru. If you study her applique work you will find many interesting and beautiful things. I truly love everything she has made and sent to me, and I thank her.

As other reviews have mentioned this is a very well designed bag that is SO nicely priced! Along with being aesthetically pleasing it highlights the forethought of intentional functionality intertwined with beauty. The leather is lovely & the pattern is incredibly special while still being subtle enough for everyday use. The small details in particular - such as the feet on the bottom of the bag & the swiveling mechanisms used in attaching the detachable shoulder strap - are impeccable. The handles are also obviously quite sturdily made, which is a hallmark of many high quality handbags. It also features three useful organizational pockets & is lightweight enough to carry comfortably. My specific bag has the tiniest bit of ever so slightly irregularly cut leather around the outer zipper which means I LOVE this piece even more - as this makes it both one of a kind and fabulously unique proof that it was handmade! Thank you so very much to Fabiola Gonzalez and Novica for this purse!

This is my third leather bag by Fabiola, and I LOVE IT. I now have one for Spring/ Summer (embroidered), winter (this beautiful russet), and a teal version for all of the in-between. I learned how to do leather tooling from my father in childhood, and know the work that goes into it. Quality, quality, and beauty!
