Brown-Black Leather Shoulder Bag with Multiple Pockets, "Molasses Rhapsody"
Ships Fast from the U.S.
Leather artisans in a third-generation workshop in West Bengal create this embossed bag entirely by hand. The technique is based on a style that originated in nearby Shantiniketan. Featuring handles and a detachable shoulder strap, the bag is fully lined in red, has open pockets on both sides, as well as a middle compartment with a zipper. There's an additional external zipper pocket. The leather is such a dark brown as to appear nearly black.

"This is such an unique wallet!"
I gave this wallet as a gift to my husband and was not sure he would like it, but he LOVES it! It is so well made and the leather is soft and supple. I like the zipper in the middle, which Ive never seen before in a wallet. This could be a great place to store something very personal. If youre thinking of buying this wallet, do not hesitate!

"Functional and attractive wallet"
I finally gave up on my leather wallet, which had also been hand-crafted by a local leatherwork artisan. As the pandemic shut down craft shows in my area, I was not able to buy from this artisan, so I took to Novica and was very pleased to find this wallet. It holds all of my cards in various areas so the wallet does not become a thick pocketful of massive leather. It is rich black leather accented tastefully with a red stripe. Very pleased and happy with this wallet!

"Gorgeous Well Made Treasure!"
The quality of this bag is awesome! The cow leather is strong, supple and soft with an incredible pattern all over the front and back. The size is perfect for whatever I need to carry. The pocket on the outside is wide, deep and roomy. The interior is also very deluxe with 2 great large zippered pockets as well as open pockets. The interior dark red color is such a terrific change from most other bags with typical black linings. A key holder hook is included inside. I m very pleased and happy with my purchase!
