Lovely

This is my second Anuschka bag. My first was a fairly small handbag that lasted a hearty 9 years. I could have gotten more miles from it but it would need work on the straps, and I needed something slightly bigger. The downside of this bag is that there really wasn't a size between the small bag and this hobo. In earnest, it's a bit big for what I really need and want, but I love the design so much and its construction that I am satisfied with it. Despite that it has two internal pockets I wish it had some sort of divider. The open space is so big that small objects swim in it and I have to fish to find them. As well, the internal pockets are made of the thin, loose lining and their contents spill into the open space very easily. The cell phone pocket is a bit outdated in that it's too small for a PDA. This is a bother unless you are satisfied with fitting it into one of the external side pockets.All-in-all it's a beautiful bag, very lightweight, and certainly roomy. I think its internal organization could be constructed better, but perhaps that will have improved when I get my next bag. Here's hoping this one lasts as long or longer than my first!
I love this purse!

I bought this Anuschka 433 Hobo, Henna Floral purse and I just love it. Its large enough to carry my e-cigs, my wallet, keys, phone, chapstick and more. The quality of this purse is great, from the thick liner to the leather. The strap is adjustable if you like a longer strap or if you are tall like me, It came with a dust cover bag, so if you want to store it in your closet it will stay beautiful, I normally don't spend this much for a purse, but it was worth every penny. Also I went to the Anuschka store site and ordered the leather protector spray, I didn't want to use anything that could possible harm the design. Most other stores that carry Anuschka handbags do not carry this design. It is more vibrant than in the pictures.
My wife thinks I raise the moon now that I gave her one....

I bought this purse for my wife's birthday. I know nothing about women's purses. When I took this one out of the packaging I knew I had made a good decision. The leather is supple, not hard, there is plenty of room in this particular purse, and the hand-painted design is art gallery quality!! My wife knew the brand and LOVED the purse! She, too, was surprised that the purse was soft and supple and not hard leather. Gotta give it 5 stars.
Lovely leather bag

Beautiful leather bag. The dahlia is gorgeous in shades of blue, green, and silver. The zippered pocket on the pack of the bag is perfect for my iPhone 6s. There is an attached lanyard for my keys and a zippered pocket on the inside. There is also a long pocket on the inside that is perfect for my sunglasses. This is not a huge, carry everything kind of bag, but more of a mid-size. I can carry my phone, sunglasses, keys, wallet, and a few small zippered pouches with personal items.

Love love love everything about this purse. The lining and hardware are just as impressive as anything on a mass-marketed designer purse...BUT: every time I go out with it, I get compliments and oohs and aaahs. The artwork is playful and brilliant. The leather is supple and beautiful. Even the strap is painted to match (this photo doesn't show that very clearly, but it is dazzling). The two outside pockets have brass eyelets in a whimsical pattern. I could write forever and not convey how happy I am with this purchase. The hardest thing will be choosing my next design!
Exquisite!

I have never spent this much for a purse, but I have not been able to find one that I really like until now. This purse is the perfect shape and size for what I need, the leather is high quality and very supple, and the artwork is beyond beautiful! It is way better in real life than in the picture! It has three inside pockets: one that zips and holds two prescription bottles, cards, breath mints, and a couple of other small things; one that is supposed to hold your cell phone, but my phone is a galaxy S4 and is a little too big to fit in that pocket so I'm using that pocket for miscellaneous stuff like emery boards and lip balm; and one large open pocket that I use for my phone (I put it in on its side rather than standing up). The two outside open pockets are fairly roomy, and I use one for my keys and the other for pens. The outside zipper pocket I use for my notepad and other miscellaneous paper, and this pocket is really nice because the zipper can be easily hidden. The inside of the purse holds a smallish brush and a largish checkbook wallet. With all of this, the purse is pretty full, so if you need to hold more stuff, you should probably get a bigger size. I am very happy with this purse, and I plan on buying more Anuschka!
Anushka winter bag
Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2018
I was looking for an Anushka bag I could use for the winter months. The âMagical Nightâ pattern fit the bill! I just love the size and shape of my 433 Classic Hobo with studded side pockets which holds my apple 10 phone very comfortably! The interior is roomy enough for the basics that you carry everyday plus some. You can fit a kindle comfortable. I even manage to put a water bottle when I donât have my kindle. However, Not a pocketbook for those who like to carry the âkitchen sinkâ. This is my second Anuschka handbag and plan to purchase more. FYI: I spray them with the Anuschka leather protector.

I wasn't sure I was going to like the flamingos when I ordered this but when I opened it up I couldn't believe how beautiful this bag is. I'm gifting it to my Mom for Christmas but I'm seriously having second thoughts about keeping it for myself. The extra details with the studded side pockets are stunning, the leather is so soft and luxurious and the size it perfect. My Mom is going to love it! (If she gets it LOL)

I bought this bag to replace one of similar size. I had the other bag over 10 years and the interior was still intact. The artwork on the outside of the bag had faded and was dirty and worn away a little bit and did not clean up as well as I had wanted it to, please note that I used this bag everyday for all of the 10 years. I was still happy with my older bag, but when I saw the artwork on this one I knew I had to say good bye to my old bag. So begins my adoration with my new Henna Floral Hobo bag.

Die Tasche ist vom Muster her toll, GöÃe ist gut - nicht zu klein und nicht zu groÃ.Leider ist der Schulterriemen so glatt, dass er oft von der Schulter rutscht. Ich habe die Tasche ca. ein halbes Jahr täglich im Gebrauch und leider geht im oberen Bereich die Farbe ab, d.h. was mal schwarz war, ist jetzt grau und z.T. gibt es weiÃe Stellen. Bei dem Preis ein absolutes no Go! Trotzdem liebe ich die Anuschka Taschen, da sie ganz besonders sind!

No way its leather. You can smell the cheap plastic all over the entire room. Also much smaller than it appears. The strap is way too short to hold comfortably. Stinks like plastic and looks and feels like plastic. Worst purchase I ever made. Stay away from these horrific plastic bags. Donât buy at any price. Yuk!!
