Sometimes when I am shopping for hides I find the perfect base to paint. This hide absorbed the pigment beautifully, and I had fun adding metallic pigments to give it a shimmery finish.
I matched the leather with a fun 100% cotton fabric lining designed by an Australian artist and added a copper coloured turn lock as a closure. The pattern for this clutch is my own design, it’s large enough for all the essentials on a night out.
Approximate measurements
28cm across
16cm High
3 – 4cm wide gusset
The kangaroo leather is made in Australia, and the cotton lining fabric was sourced from an Australian business. Bags are designed and made in my MEW Designs Studio (also known as a laboratory) in Brisbane Australia.
As the leather has been hand painted it is more delicate and should be treated with care. Avoid abrasion or harsh chemicals. I have applied sealants to try and get the finish as sturdy as possible.
