A compliment every time!
I've only had this for a couple weeks and every time I go out with it, some random person compliments me on it. It's beautiful and I'm very happy with it. It is well made and I can tell it's not going to fall apart at the seams or get worn out! A couple things to note: - The leather is not as bright red as it is pictured and I'm happy for that. It is a little more brick colored on mine. Assume there will be some variations! - The inside is lined. - The inside has 1 large pocket and 1 small zippered pocket. - It is a very stiff/solid/structured purse. This isn't "slouchy". - The strap is just long enough to be a cross-body purse and sit at your hip on the longest buckle option.
Beautiful, delightfu!, and meaningful!
I ordered these in addition to the soapstone carved box. I have a thing for elephants. They are beautifully carved and hold a carving within a carving. There is another smaller elephant just visible within. For me, it symbolically represents each of our species carry the future within, along with the wisdom and the hope to endure and survive. Elephant figurines with their trunks curved down represent wisdom and the abiity to overcome obstacles. I would like to think they speak to the even deeper wisdom carried within.....Ancestral and what is even deeper within us that is available to us to draw upon.
