This dark black leather is gorgeous, so soft with an almost waxy feel. The thin straps are secured to the bag by lacing through small grommets and knotted, and there is a buckle so you can adjust the length. For those who like small bags, this one if perfect! We love the shape, structure and especially the tassel. There are two separate compartments, one on each side of the bag with it's own zipper. Lined in a canvas. Always made in the USA. 8" wide x 6.5" high. (model is wearing the navy suede)
