Handcrafted 100% pure, genuine, Lamb Leather and Suede Handbags!
While I sort out a technical problem on my computer please check out the latest collection of Handcrafted bags that have arrived in September as promised by me on my facebook page!!
What makes TERRA different is that it is not an assembly line production. Each piece is individually handcrafted by skilled artisans to produce a collection that is distinct and heart-stopping. With such attention to detail we found the finish comparable to designer luxury bags seen only abroad. Coming stuffed with tiny branded fill-pillows, trimmed with the choicest accessories and in their very own dust covers, these bags are certainly a new age in self indulgence and celebrating fashion!
To check out more bags from Terra visit their website and download their catalogue. The friendly owners can arrange for overseas shipping if you like their collections :)
