Rating: 5.0 out of 5 (4)

Uncomplicated and essential, this handmade leather bag is ideal for everyday errands. Cut from sumptuous black vegetable tanned leather, the natural grain and texture is preserved by the sustainable tanning process, accentuating the organic past life of the material, highlighting the surface variance and developing individual charm and character with use.

The small brass finish turn lock stylishly adds security and swift access. A sleek profile, measuring 19 cm x 23.5 cm, this flat leather crossbody bag is completed with a strap and buckle, adjustable between 121 and 131 cm, attached with brass D-rings.

Lovingly hand made in London, a small black leather bag with a simple understated design made from a beautifully supple leather.
The leather is free of any heavy finishes or top coats, so may transfer colour onto light clothing at first, until a natural patina is developed.

We also make these in classic navy, warm tan and deep rich brown.

A full grain, natural finish, this leather's charm comes as it is used, aged, and gathers memories.
We’d recommend a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to give it a gentle clean, and most small scratches can be polished out with a clean, soft cloth. If you feel it’s in need of some extra affection, you might like to use a leather conditioner - look out for one containing beeswax and/or natural oils. We'd recommend against using a neutral one in case of colour transfer.
Try not to let your new leather accessory get wet; if it does, allow it to dry naturally - away from heaters - and it might be worth giving it a little condition after. 
There is a risk of colour transfer should it get wet but being vegetable tanned, any transfer should come out with normal laundry detergent.

To us, it’s important that the leather we use aligns with our values. Alongside creating long lasting, timeless products, we ensure we minimise our impact on the planet, by crafting our pieces responsibly.

All of our leather is supplied by tanneries who are audited and certified by the Leather Working Group.

The Leather Working Group is the world’s largest leather sustainability program. LWG has identified environmental best practices in the industry and audits tanneries to assess the environmental performance of leather manufacturing facilities – and certifies those that meet the standards.
