Lovely, High Quality Handbag
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2017
This handbag is very high quality. I am really impressed by its beauty. I have many handbags that cost between $300 and $2,000 and this one is the best quality by far. The color of the handbag is dark brown with reddish brown raised embossed flowers. I have included photos of this handbag with a monogram Louis Vuitton Artsy and black Henri Bendel handbag for color accuracy. The handbag I purchased was called brown. I have no complaints about the beauty and quality of this handbag except that the shoulder strap appears to be PVC rather than the beautiful leather that this purse is made of. While disappointed in the shoulder strap, the handbag itself is worth the $185 that I paid for it without a doubt. I am including two photos with an 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper in front of the handbag for size comparison. It appears that my photos are upside down. I hope they are still useful.
Elegant, unique, well-made handbag

I wasn't sure what to expect when I received this. I will say that it was packed meticulously and was protected very well. Even the tiny metal feet on the bottom of the bag were protected. I gasped an audible gasp when I unwrapped this beautiful hand bag. The craftsmanship is quite lovely and I can say without reservation that the quality is very good. The design of the bag is not only gorgeous but practical as well. It allows easy access and has two main compartments, with a large zip pocket on one side and two small pockets on the other. The dividing zippered pocket that separates the two main compartments is handy, though it would be preferable to have it more taut as opposed to loose and slouchy. The tooled leather is extraordinarily beautiful, I almost returned my bag for a replacement (and maybe I should have), because of faint water-type staining on one side. I was so excited about the bag that I forfeited my chance to replace it in my enthusiasm to use it right away. I won't do that again should that problem arise again on any future orders. And, yes, I will order from them again. The handles are smooth and comfy to hold and the shoulder strap is far better than I expected. I am a large woman and find the strap to be perfect at it longest length. However, I wouldn't mind a few more inches added for a cross-body effect. I will say that the picture had me thinking that the background color of the tooling was black, but that is not the case. I am fond of black/brown combos. I love the ornate magnetic flap closure. It is a very Asian kind of detail that helps make the bag even more elegant. I do worry that in time it may not keep its shape, but only time and use will tell. I have had many compliments already after only a week of use. For the price, the quality is pretty darn great, as is the design. It's definitely not a bag that you will see anywhere else. Very unique and very elegant.

I buy myself a well made (most of the time expensive) purse about every 4 or 5 years, depending on the quality of the purse. My last purse was a MK and was used like a diaper bag, picnic basket, you name it. I needed a new one because I couldn't replace the straps. What I am trying to say is it I'm very hard on my purses, I need them to last and I am not one to waste money for fasion without functionality. Yes, this purse is stiff but overtime leather loosens. Yes, it has a smell (fresh leather) It does get heavy when you add more items but you have a strap. I keep the strap rolled inside the purse but I have used it and it us worth it. It is very well made and Beautiful. The pictures show a Samsung Tab E and a 32oz (95L) bottle water. I could do with out the middle pouch/pocket. So far so good. I will update if anything changes.Update: 12 July 2020I have been carrying this purse everyday since purchased in 2018. This purse has suffered spills, being stepped on and tossed around. The leather has maintained its shape but softened. I had one of the buckles for the longer detachable strap break off in the beginning of 2020. Everything else is as it was when it was brand new. Worth the price!! I am writing this to help you make an informed decision. I read reviews and research almost everything I buy on Amazon. Sometimes it's difficult to tell if the reviews are honest.
Exceeded expectations!

Absolutely exquisite. More beautiful and classy in person than the pictures on Amazon capture. Perfect size as well. This bag could easily sell for $350 or more. It's truly a great buy!
Unique Look - Not Quality - Waste of $$$

Had to cut off big swirl thing as the magnet broke 1 week after I got it. Shoulder strap is cheap and doesn't match bag. The purse is big and bulky but it fits my laptop as long as unzipped. Very sleek looking bag.**Update 6mos. W/Light use. Now both handles have broken in several spots. Definitely not a good investment of $180. Poor quality despite being a pretty design it is depressing that it didn't last 6 months!!If this was a $29 bag I would not be as upset. This is one of the most expensive bags I ever purchased and was to reward myself for a huge accomplishment. Looking at it brought me joy! Now it's not worth the frustration that I get looking at this utter waste of money.
If you like it get it asap

I just received this bag, and LOVE it! The materials are of the highest quality, the workmanship is exceptional, and the interior design allows for fantastic organization. The photo doesn't do this item justice - it's truly one of the most beautiful bags I've ever owned, and an outstanding value for the price.
Buy this bag!

The pictures don't do justice to this purse. In person, it looks richer and the color seems more vibrant. The workmanship is what I would expect for a bag in this price range and I was not disappointed. I love the red interior - you can really see what's in the bag!The drawbacks I have don't take away from the 5 stars I gave the bag. The first: The empty purse is much heavier than I expected. The second: While the actual bag was very well packed, I was disappointed that it came packed in a plastic mailing envelope. I would have thought it would have been in a box. Every piece on the bag that could be wrapped was wrapped (even the feet on the bottom!) and it was in a dust bag and two other bags so I suppose it was protected.
