Kurtmen Designs - Premium Italian Leather -Fun Western Style -Arizona /Texas- "HOME ON THE RANGE"- Long Crossbody / XL Wide Clutch
Take a wild trip throughout the south AND the west!
Called “Home on the Range”, Kurtmen never fails at giving us their incredibly soft Italian Leather purses that are fun & colorful, where each will steal the spotlight!
This particular crossbody/clutch has a strong western/southwestern theme & is made in a XL width, but is short enough that you'll be able to find anything you put in it!
The frontal art 'flap' is incredible where it has a beautiful Mexican woman, a Mexican man wearing a Sombrero, an Eagle ,a chief headdress, all different types of wonderful cactus that are native to Arizona, an oil rig that sits in the lands of Texas, etc..
The flap is hand studded with bronze studs & is whip stitch along the border of the flap & then is all hand knotted with distressed brown leather fringe. Lift the flap open & you have a zipped closure (For double safety) & then on the inside ,it's all red cloth lined & has a 7" interior zipper .
The strap is attached by a metal ring,so if you want to carry this as a clutch, all you do is open the ring that holds the strap. (See photo 11) The strap is super long & actually if it's too long, you can take it to a shoe repair, where they can cut it down & then reattach to the ring that holds it.
I will condition this before sending,but I find Italian leather maintains it's buttery soft feel,which don't need to be conditioned as much, as other leathers..But that's your call knowing what climate you live in!
A WORD:
Crossbody bags are one of the 'safest' style purses to carry when you're traveling, out shopping,because you always know where it's at & is on your body at all times! It's also one of the best styles when you have kids & need you're hands/arms free!!
If you look at the last photo,I have listed, a fabulous lipstick red color, with yellow fringe!

PLEASE NOTE:
Real leather is a natural product. It breathes, it's warm and has individual characteristics which are the natural charm and beauty of hide. As a natural product however, it will often display traces of the animal's past life, such as brand marks, wrinkles, veins, healed scars and differing fiber density.
