Purses, Wristlets, & Handbags

Leather purses, wristlets and crossbodies in full-grain leather, none of them made by the thousand. The Prairie Luxe wristlet crossbodies are one of a kind and numbered; each has its own hide, hardware and lacing, and the one in the photo is the one you get. The Modern wristlets in mahogany and golden sorrel are the everyday version with a clean strap and no fringe. The crescent bag is the one that holds everything, and the Hide & Tassel Frontier purses are the big statement: hair-on cowhide with fringe, 12" square and 5" deep. For him, the full-grain Dopp kit lives in the same case.

Full-grain leather is the top of the hide with the grain intact, so these break in and darken where your hand rides instead of cracking; the difference is spelled out in types of leather explained. The pieces made in our shop are made in the USA and carry a lifetime warranty against defects. A bag that goes to the barn and the bank in the same week deserves a wipe-down and a light coat of leather cream once a year; here is how to clean and condition leather.
