Shoulder bag- Tapsalteerie
Designed and made in the Scottish Borders by Julia Cunningham
The Muckle Tapsalteerie Shoulder Bag is a beautifully handcrafted statement piece, made from earthy brown and cream striped wool tweed, exuding natural charm and timeless elegance. The flap, crafted in a soft light green tweed, provides a gentle contrast, making this bag a versatile and stylish accessory.
Lined in a charcoal fabric, it features an internal zipped pocket finished with an Olive zip—a thoughtful detail that enhances both functionality and design. The bag is completed with a large hand-covered metal button, strong elastic closure, and a delicate shell button accent, showcasing impeccable craftsmanship.
With soft yet structured sides, this lightweight yet spacious bag is perfect for everyday wear, travel, or special occasions. A funky, standout design, guaranteed to get you noticed.
I have given it a special price of £72 down from its original £95.60– a rare bargain for something so unique, flexible that will make you smile everyday!
But don’t hang about – there’s only one available, and once it’s gone, it’s gone. If it’s still here after the 13th of October it’ll return to its original price.
What’s New!
Its a small one. A new small bag or phone pouch for when you want to travel light!
