leather shoulder purses 
 This two-tone custom handmade leather purse was first built to carry an Apple Ipad - it has an inside back pocket that the pad slips into. It's over-all dimensions are about 10" wide by 10" high by 4.5". It's completely built using various ways of elaborate braiding. The 1/4" wide lacing is cut from the same 4 oz. moccasin cowhide leather the bag is made with. All of the seams are joined with an applique braid. That same braid is used down the center/length of the strap. The flap has an edge braid around it. The strap is fastened to the body with braiding and has very long tassels that hang from it. 
 The two colors of leather that this bag is built with are dark Brown and Mahogany. Some of the tassels are the color Cream. 
 There are two compartments under the flap of this bag that can better be seen in the pictures of the next Ipad bag in the pictures below. 
 Depending on how they are built, these styles cost about $475.

 The purse below was also built to carry an Apple Ipad. It's dimensions are also 10" by 10' by 4.5". Each item that I make is built to the buyers request. Working together, we determine the style, color/s, dimensions, pocket/s, strap length, tassel length, etc. The pieces of this are the color Mahogany - it is braided with Mahogany and Chestnut laces.

 This Mahogany colored bag employs two tones of laces for it's braiding - Mahogany and Chestnut. All of it's seams are braided, there's braiding around it's flap, there's a braid down the center/length of it's strap that is attached with braiding that includes very long Chestnut tassels.
 This is the side view of the same bag as just above. It shows that it has two compartments under the flap. The 10" by 10" bag has compartments that are 2.5" in the back and a 2" on the front.  ...making the total of 4.5" for this third dimension of the bag.
 This picture of this style of bag shows that it has two compartments under the flap, and, it shows an Ipad slipping into a back pocket of the back compartment.

 This is a second view of the same bag as above. These bags are completely and truly handmade - no electricity is used in their construction. Patterns that I have designed are laid out and traced, holes are punched one at a time, laces are cut and then it is braided together. They are all made with personal features that make them quite different from one another - all are one of a kind custom pieces.

 This is a second view of the same bag as above. Other than the colors, both of the purses pictured on this web page are very much like each other. A person might better perceive how they're built by looking at the pictures below. 

 The picture below shows a better view of this bags side ...and that it has two compartments under the flap. The back compartment is 2.5" and the front one is 2" ...making a total of 4.5" for this dimension. 
 This view better shows that it has two compartments under the flap. And, it shows an Ipad slipping into a back pocket of the back compartment.
