Utility and Luxury combined in a custom made bag!

Do you have an inherited or vintage fur coat that has special meaning to you, but you can't, or don't want to wear anymore? Have it on your purse instead!

I can take leather or fur from an old coat and fashion a new purse for you!

The example shown is for a client who treasured her grandmother's mink coat. She could never wear it, but by using it in a purse, she can literally carry her wonderful memories and a physical connection of her grandmother with her.

A brass button closure was added.

Brass button closure open--button snaps onto stud for very secure closure.

This satchel is about 12" long, 7" high, and 4" wide. The soft leather sets off panels of mink--this example was custom made for a client using mink from her grandmother's coat.

I have more of this mink available, or choose from the mink on the large satchel page, or if you have your own old mink coat you can't wear, I'd be happy to use it for your purse!

And you can choose the leather color, too. Just ask!

The top opens wide to access contents, but it actually closes when sitting or hanging due to my unique strap system. This also allows you to have a short or longer strap whenever you please. A button snap closure can be added for extra security, too!
