Brown Crocodile and Lizard Handbag

Crocodile and Lizard Embossed Leather Shoulder Bag

     The beautiful bag is crocodile embossed onto genuine cowhide leather and finished at the tannery.  The gusset is lizard embossed onto genuine cowhide leather and finished at the tannery.  The gusset is sewn to the front and back panels with piping to give that extra touch.  The piping is made with genuine leather.
     This smart shoulder bag is handcrafted from brown crocodile embossed cowhide which is used for the front and back panels and the shoulder strap.  

     The gusset is made from tan lizard embossed cowhide.  The combination of these two colors and textures give a smart look to this shoulder bag.

     The panels and gusset are sewn together with piping that is made with tan pigskin.  

     The strap is folded over, glued and double stitched giving it that finished look on both sides including the edge.  It is attached to the bag with a solid brass "D" ring that is securely attached to the gusset with glue, stitching, and finally riveted for a no-fail sturdy smart looking touch.  The strap is attached to the "D" ring with glue and a sturdy rivet.

    Overall dimensions are just over 9 inches wide, at the base, by 10 1/2 inches tall.  The gusset is 3 3/4 inches wide at the bottom and 2 3/4 inches wide at the top.
