i agree with the assessment that the shiny metal takes away from the presentation of the pearl. a leather starburst or flower shape could highlight the pearl nicely, i think, especially one made of patent leather.
good luck!

Perlabrina Tahitian pearl handbags--need feedback please!!
- Thread starter pbina

I do agree that these bags are really nice, and will appeal to perhaps the 40 and older crowd......which would include me. They are somewhat structured for my taste, but I still like them.
Hi everyone, here are more pics of some other designs Sabrina has been working on. Check them out and give me some feedback. Also, we got our website up and running! Here is the URL: www.perlabrina.com
Everybag has a Tahitian name and is handmade in the USA (Los Angeles). And of course each bag comes with a mounted, naturally cultured Tahitian pearl straight from French Polynesia. Please let me know what you think!

I like the handbags, and think that some of my friends and mom would as well. The chains are a bit much in some cases. I think the brown bag with just the studs and the flower is probably my favorite, but I love the green colored leather as well.
And I loved the earlier idea from a previous poster about highlighting the pearl in a leather flower. If your line takes off maybe we'll see that.

Hi. I am a designer myself and I have a line that has just begun to take off. I'd have to agree with some of the older post. Maybe fewer adornments. I think you have a good idea with the pearl, definitely unique. Try not to draw attention away from it with all of the silver accessories. Maybe placing it on the main entry zipper pull or a leather bag tag or be creative with it and use it in the logo. For example, place the pearl in a tiffany setting and spell out the remainder of your line name "abrina," directly behind it. Just a thought. Oh yeah and good luck!!!
i like the first bag on the first pic and the black one on the pic above. the fewer adornments, the better =0 goodluck!!
Just looked at the other pics. Definately like the blue clutch. Classy with just the right amount of adornment for a night out.
My thoughts on some of the other bags like the yellow one for example is that the flower makes it looks slightly juvenile but that depends on who your target market is. For the younger (13-16 set), I'd say go for it!
Maybe just the pearl without the flower? Makes it a bit more sophisticated to me. JHMO
