Very nice.  I like brogue elements so I appreciated what you incorporated into the work.  I also know how hard it is to do box stitching like you did on the side panels, so kudos to you for pulling it off.  Strap is pretty cool also.  It all harmonizes very well I think.

Totally agree with Tugadude. The first thing that came to my mind is the overall harmonic look. Normally I‘m not a  fan of brogue decorations but those fit so perfectly to the design. I also like the rolled/turned edge on the flap,, thats something you don‘t see everyday.

The new owner will be happy with it

Thanks, guys,

 

For some reason, the text disappeared from my post.

The leather is veg-tan belly from Italy, the rolls and handle are made from brass tubing. I made this for my wife. I'll also be making a longer strap, so she can use it for both evening wear, as well as a normal, small-sized handbag.
