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.

Definitely worth the money
I bought one of these for a trip and liked it so much I use it every day for work now. It has the right mix of pockets (some zippered) and slots to handle cash, cards, tickets/passports, phone, and glasses without being bulky or heavy. If I need to, I can put anything else I need to carry in the roomy main pocket. One of my friends liked my red one so much she bought the same one. Another friend bought the cinnamon. Both of those colors are beautiful. My bag has held up remarkably well--still looks new and gets compliments after 2 years of hard travel, regular use, and minimal upkeep. Definitely worth the money.
