Rich color, supple leather, and room for your everyday essentials. David’s leather totes bring simple, practical style to your day, each one cut and entirely saddle-stitched by hand here in Vermont.
Available in a variety of colors, the pull-up leather develops character with use, with subtle shifts in color that highlight the natural beauty of each hide. Sturdy leather handles finish each bag, with handle lengths noted in the individual listings.

As Seen on WCAX — Made in Vermont
WCAX visited my Vermont studio for a peek at the tools, process, and story behind Divella Designs jewelry.
