I could not be happier with this purchase.Being an artist myself, the cost was high for me, but the product result is worth more. My Thanks to the artist for the vision and execution of this incredible piece!

I just received my Garden Path shoulder bag yesterday. The colors are lovely; both soft and neutral. The beading on the sides is nice extra touch. I appreciate attention to detail and this sweet little bag has it.

These are perfect bags to toss in your purse or car to take to the market as a tote bag. Beautiful batik fabric prints that zip down into a compact square. Unzipped they are the perfect small market tote bag for either a trip to the farmer's market or the grocery store.

Prehistoric people used medicine bags, and Egyptian hieroglyphs show pouches carried around the waist. Drawstring coin bags were used by European men from the 12th to the 16th centuries, and the first written mention of handbags dates to the 1300s.
In the 1500s, women began carrying bags of sachet. But pockets worn beneath the skirt remained more popular than purses until dresses began to hug the body in the late 18th century. During the Victorian period, a wide variety of purse styles came into vogue and the term "handbag" was coined in the early 1900s.
By the first part of the 20th century, almost every woman carried a purse. Authentic handbags came into their own during the 1920s with all kinds of styles, colors and materials.
From the 1930s to the 1960s, clutches were a favorite. Practical shoulder bags were introduced during World War II. Today hobos, totes and slings compete with classic leather handbags, mini briefcases and backpack bags.
Among Novica's amazing array of styles and materials are sterling silver evening bags by Ploy Intha. Sending an ecological statement, totes of recycled materials make up Neide Ambrosio's soda pop-top collection and Evani Ribeiro's bags of distressed canvas.
