For a fun companion on your travels, this messenger bag-style sling is created by Kathiana Quispe in Peru. She crafts the bag from suede in contrasting espresso and golden brown hues. A wool accent panel displays colorful geometric patterns. The front flap of this bag opens with a magnetic snap, revealing a zipper that opens to a lined interior with a zipper pocket on one side.

Wear this bag any way you like. Kathiana Quispe crafts it with two different removable straps that will allow you to wear it as a shoulder bag, crossbody, wristlet, or an elegant evening clutch. She mixes the colors and textures of smooth tobacco leather with a tooled geometric pattern along the flap's edge. This bag is fully lined and comes with a flap magnetic closure, a zippered interior pocket, and an adjustable strap.

Katiana Quispe's work mixes the old traditions of her native Cusco with functional, modern designs. She learned the art of tooling leather from her father and uses Andean textiles as inspiration for her work.
