Authenitc from Cusco
I just got back from Cusco, Peru. I bought beautiful pillow covers but wanted a few more authentic handwoven items. I KNOW this purse is authentic, and it is well made. I visited weaving cooperatives and recognize the natural colors and designs. It has a sturdy lining and a nice inside pocket with zipper. I use it for my everyday purse, I like the size. I don't like a big purse. It is important to me that the weavers of the Peruvian Andes get support to continue weaving. Tourists have not returned to this area and these traditions will be lost. Plus it is a beautiful purse with rich colors.
I LOVE this bag!
This bag is now my favorite purse! I wanted something I could use daily to remind me of my trip to Peru. It is so well made and looks just like the picture. This isn't a large bag but there's room for a slim wallet, phone, and a few personal items. The additional zippered pocket on the outside is a nice touch - it's easily big enough for a cell phone and the adjustable strap completes it. I highly recommend this bag!
