I’m smitten too and how, those gorgeous leathers and Marco’s immaculate craftsmanship just speak volumes of his experience and skill
I'd love to hear if you still like this bag. I'm very tempted to buy a Lanxn. They are unique looking, structured and very reasonably priced!Finally bought the Lanxn Marlene Mignon! Have been eyeing it for so long but hesitated cause it is a new brand. I am so overwhelmed and excited by its quality and very reasonable price point. Have to say its even better quality than some of my branded bags that cost 4 times more!
The leather is impeccable and very luxurious. I think they are definitely my type of brand to follow. Love to share with you all.
I don't know if Oberon Design has been mentioned here, but they're an American business from California that hand makes leather products like bags, wallets, journal and tablet covers, pewter jewelry, etc. I own some jewelry, journal covers, and a small bag from them and it's all very high quality craftsmanship. This is the bag I own and it has held up extremely well.

Hey guys check out this brand from India www.hidesign.com
They use high quality leather and suede and traditional methods of tanning and creating leather goods. I’ve bought a lot of bags from them but now I find their styles tad Caliched, I’m always eyeing a new style in their Ostrich leather collection! Their prices are fair and I think very cost beneficial considering they make genuine leather bags. Check out their designs if you like simple and classic styles [emoji4]
I’ll try taking a few pics once I dig out all my Hidesign bags (if I haven’t gifted any)-I own one in elephant leather, camel, calf, suede, almost all that they had in stock at that point. [emoji4]

This is a bag from a brand called Rossini, in Rome. It must be more than 12 years old and look at that leather...
Oops there it is
Going even further worldwide - I'd like to give a special shout out to a Russian brand called Imakebags. All their items are designed with a specific purpose in mind (ie capacity and usage) and are handmade. The HW is Italian and the bags are very well made for a reasonable price. I've read an interview with the brand creator and it was really interesting to learn how she came about turning her passion for a more practical application of fashion (ie wearable items versus abstract beautiful images) into an actual business, sometimes being at odds with what was expected of her as a wife and a mother. I wish the website was in English for everyone to understand, but they do ship worldwide

I do have the little camera bag crossbody in dark green! The quality is pretty great - leather is thick and sturdy, stitching is good, and hardware is very similar to MM (probably the same manufacturer since she sources it from Italy) and the bag came with 3 different strap options (thick shoulder, wristlet, and thin crossbody). I speak the language so communication was good for me.
Thank you. I speak the language too so the website is easy for me to navigate. Good prices, too.I do have the little camera bag crossbody in dark green!

They ship via Mail Russia which to the US ends up being about 30 USD (so similar price to MM). It took a little while for the bag to get to me, but it arrived in one piece. Since you speak the language, you can directly communicate with them via the email listed on the website, I believe the owner herself actually ends up responding.
