Country Gentry Flatcap Unique Handbag with Silver tone chain strap!
Country Gentry is a handbag made from two brand new steel blue flat caps, with leather and buckle straps on the base and a strap made from a brand new, heavy duty silver tone dog check chain.
Maybe the perfect handbag for the country setting, for the equestrian or dog lover!
The two new hats that form the front and back of this handbag are a size 60cm and are 50% wool and 50% acrylic, so hand wash only.
They are fully lined, making the inside of the handbag a perfect receptacle for all the usual handbag contents!
The two hats were securely hand sewn together leaving the firmer peaks of the hats to form the opening of the handbag. Closure for the handbag was created by hand punching and placing of a magnetic popper closure, which remains hidden when the handbag is closed. To open, simply and gently pull the two peaks apart and to close, line them up and allow the magnetic popper to close itself tight.
The handle is made from a heavy duty, brand new silver tone dog's check chain or collar, with round metal loop ends, which would make a fabulous place to attach a handbag charm. The check chain strap was hand sewn into place on either side to the handbag, creating a perfect shape to drape over the arm.
