Beautiful AND functional; so glad I got it!
There are so many good things to say about this bag; let's start with it's absolutely beautiful AND functional. The quality is top notch. The main compartment is large enough to hold my wristlet wallet (10" x 5"), the matching Anuschka round coin purse, a hair brush, and I could probably put more in there. I like the open pocket inside the front, and that the inside is a light color (tan) so I can see in it to find things. The bottom is wide so it sits without falling over. I like that the cell phone pocket isn't so deep that I lose my phone in it, then struggle to get it out. Love the outside zipper compartment which makes for quick access. I like the rounded handles, and the colors are gorgeous. The shoulder strap is plenty long. I do find the strap stiff and unruly, so I'll look for a wider, more supple one for comfort. This bag does indeed bring me joy when I look at it; it truly is a beautiful work of art and craftsmanship. I haven't had it long enough to rate the wear, but I am careful with my bags so I expect it will last a long time. My only concern is the zipper pulls and key clip seem to be plastic or aluminum because I tested them with a very strong magnet and they are not magnetic. I do hope they aren't plastic when the rest of the bag is such high quality. Read more
