About the Item

Get blown away with a terrific two-toned leather handbag shaped like a tornado (or upside down soft serve ice cream depending on your perspective). The leather strips are in shades of camel and bone expertly stitched together to form a unique silhouette. A hidden zipper closure provides a secure access and a generous shoulder strap makes for an easy carry. The inside is unlined and there is no maker’s label. It is from the Atlanta estate of an art collector and I suspect it is artisan made. Really fun! CONDITION Good condition with some light signs of wear though nothing objectionable. MEASUREMENTS The body of the handbag measures 11” wide at the top and tapers to 5” wide at base. It measures 11” tall x 5” deep. The handle measures 39” from end to end providing for an 18.5” drop.
