For a step outside designer, got around to getting some pics of my mother's day gift.
A deerskin fold-over style purse, this is handmade in Canada through locally sourced hides.
Comes in an array of colors, i have pink. A bit of a blurb off their site to explain the company as a whole.
"We thrive on creating 100% Canadian Handcrafted products using regulated hides collected from local hunters. Unlike many of our competitors, we do not use inferior substitution leathers or import any foreign materials used in our products. Hides in Hand is about keeping quality and tradition alive within the leather industry and protecting our resources and animals to maintain renewable resources."

By pricing standards generally on this forum, these would be considered quite inexpensive, for instance mine being under 200$CAD.
The purse itself has a fun floral fabric liner(these do vary based on the color of the purse, so browns for instance are more subdued) an insidepocket, just a slip style and under the flap(so on the outside front) there is another slip pocket so your phone or other go too items can reached quickly, adjustable length strap, so cross body or shoulder wear.
The hide is soft, like super duper soft and is quite a light purse because of the minimal hardware, and type of leather used. Long tassels are attached to the main zipper to make zipping faster/easier, the zipper on mine is a nice chocolate brown(a YKK brand)
