Furla is another nice mid-level brand with fantastic leather and lifelong durability. I don’t know the name of this one as I bought it at a sample sale for about £40.
It is a beautiful big bag with three compartments inside, separated by a central zipped section. I carry books and papers on each side and my handbag stuff in the middle. The tote is very plain which means that the gorgeous leather can speak for itself. Front and back look the same. The only logo (apart from the lining) is a small ‘Furla’ written on the bottom front of the bag in small discreet letters.
It is a big bag and the leather is superb. The handles fit shoulder arm and hand. The colour looks different between the several photos but the light causes shift in tone.
People often ask me what products I I use to treat and care for my leather goods. The answer is – none. I am not sure why because when I use them I use them with gusto, but my leather items always look nice and glossy and plump – very well cared for. Perhaps they know they are loved 😉
