It's possible that someday we'll unearth a leather tote that we love more than this one, but the outlook does not look good. Available in cognac or stone Italian leather—both colors just get richer and more enticing with age—this one walks the line between rustic and polished. And the copper hardware? That just pushes it over the edge.
What to know: Handmade in Brooklyn; vegetable-tanned Italian leather with copper rivets; measures 12 inches by 18 inches by 2 inches with two 4 ¾-inch by 5 ½-inch exterior pockets and 15-inch-long handles (with a 6-inch drop).
