Embossed leather handbag, 'Impressions in Claret'

This is my third leather bag by Fabiola, and I LOVE IT. I now have one for Spring/ Summer (embroidered), winter (this beautiful russet), and a teal version for all of the in-between. I learned how to do leather tooling from my father in childhood, and know the work that goes into it. Quality, quality, and beauty!

Greatest gift to give myself

This purse is so cute in design, but very functional and perfect for everyday errands. I can use the strap or just carry it by the handle.

Leather shoulder bag, 'Flower Carrier in Black'

Absolutely beautiful, thank you so very much!

As other reviews have mentioned this is a very well designed bag that is SO nicely priced! Along with being aesthetically pleasing it highlights the forethought of intentional functionality intertwined with beauty. The leather is lovely & the pattern is incredibly special while still being subtle enough for everyday use. The small details in particular - such as the feet on the bottom of the bag & the swiveling mechanisms used in attaching the detachable shoulder strap - are impeccable. The handles are also obviously quite sturdily made, which is a hallmark of many high quality handbags. It also features three useful organizational pockets & is lightweight enough to carry comfortably. My specific bag has the tiniest bit of ever so slightly irregularly cut leather around the outer zipper which means I LOVE this piece even more - as this makes it both one of a kind and fabulously unique proof that it was handmade! Thank you so very much to Fabiola Gonzalez and Novica for this purse!

The Sling Bag

Novica's Sling Bag Collection features unique, handmade slings from talented purse designers and leather-smilths worldwide. Our slings are made chiefly with cotton and leather, and many are accented with other materials.

Sangrawee is an artisan who distinguishes her sling bags through her use of traditional Thai embroidery and her depiction of hill tribe motiffs. In her culturally-inspired piece titled "Hill Tribe Chili Pepper" she presents the classic bold red handbag. Her collection of embroidered cotton handbags also include many black handbags.

Kunyanee, also a native of Thailand, had been involved with the manufacture of leather products and accessories since her youth. In a piece which she names "Unisex" she introduces her own classic interpretation of the black sling bag to our line of leather shoulder bags. Her extensive collection of leather products includes a brown leather handbag which is sure to please even the most discriminating shopper.

We hope you enjoy!
