I bought this bag as a gift for a special and creative friend. When it arrived I wanted to see what it looked like so I opened wrap and my jaw dropped. This is beautiful and the picture does not do justice! I had trouble giving it to her and the fact that I did once I saw it's beauty is a testament to the value I have for her friendship. Another person stated that she felt the shoulder strap was too wide, I didn't find that and felt that it added to the structure and strength of the bag. This artist is very talented and I would recommend her work to every one and any one. Thanks for your work and the ability to give my friend a special gift worthy of her friendship.
These were purchased for family. We always add an ornament to the outside of their packages. They love this tradition, so every year they have something new for their Christmas tree.
The lovely St. Benedict Medal hangs near a charming Bavarian Cuckoo Clock which sings out melodies on the hour sometimes interfering with my rendition of “Blue Monk” on my nearby Yamaha Piano.
