Members AndrewWR Posted February 17 Members Report Posted February 17 This is a birthday present for my girlfriend. It's made of Sedgwick 1900 collection red leather which is a less glossy finish than their bridle hide. its 2.5 - 3 mm thick. Lining is pig suede, all the hardware is brass and its all held together with about 3000 hand stitches. the bag is about 10 inches across by 8" high. The main compartment is 2". The design is similar to one made by Burberry but horseshoe shaped purses are common enough. There is one main compartment, an internal front slip pocket and an external rear slip pocket, all suede lined. The fastener is a Chinese made alternative to a Loxx fastener and, having used both, I consider these solid brass ones to be far better quality than the German made ones. I like Conway buckles for strap adjustment because they're low profile and don't bite into the strap. Quote

CFM chuck123wapati Posted February 18 CFM Report Posted February 18 That's excellent workmanship and design!! I like the way you continued the strap around the bottom.
