Peruvian artisan Maria Ramos Sanchez handcrafts this mobile phone case with an arpillera style front, in which cotton blend felt is appliquéd and embroidered to create an elaborate scene. The artisan was inspired by the beautiful Tambopata National Reserve of Peru, and fills this jungle scene with scarlet macaws perched in flowering trees, a tiger stalking through the foliage on the jungle floor, and a sloth peeking out from amongst the branches. This lovely, brightly colored scene is on a yellow background, and the back and lining of the bag are black. The single compartment is secured with a zipper and a long, colorful strap makes it easy to carry the case over the shoulder or across the body.

"Unique phone case/small purse."
This is a very beautifully crafted bag with a lot of detail. It is just the right size for a cell phone or to carry a few odds and ends. Everyone who sees it remarks on how colorful it is.

"Pure quality!!!"
You dont see anything like this Macaws in the Jungle here in my part of the U.S.A.!!!!! I love it!!!!! My LG Fiesta 2 phone fits perfectly in this phone case. I have tied a knot in the strap to make it custom for my height and to carry on my shoulders. I know I seem to rate everything I purchase from Novica as 5 stars but that is just the way it is thank goodness!!!!! Thanks again and I am so happy with this purchase!!!!!
Best Uses
- This is great for carrying my cell phone but you could use this as a small purse or for decorating your home too!!!

"Perfect for phone and cash"
Love it and got a lot of compliments. Only issues were that it pills easily over time and the metallic thread in the strap breaks off and comes out.

"Beautiful"
This is lovely and has such a welcoming, lush scene on the front. I use it sometimes for my cell phone when I dont have a shirt with a pocket, or sometimes I use it to hold my pair of very close up eyeglasses. Shows meticulous handiwork.
