...
This beautiful market tote is machine stitched, and includes hand hammered solid brass rivets that will give that antique accent to the brown and black leather. This leather tote will age beautifully as it easily sustains the abuse of daily carry and wear. The interior pocket is riveted to the thick harness leather straps, and the interior pocket includes a large leather patch showing the stamped Craft and Lore maker's mark.
Care & Maintenance
This wonderful rugged oil tan leather will age and patina as any authentic full grain leather will. It will carry the markings and signs of age, and that is what we love about real leather. To easily polish up your Folkstyle Tote, use our natural leather balm with a soft cloth and circular motions across the surface. This will restore the even coloring, as well as invigorate and protect the leather. You can apply leather balm every few months. What's important is keeping the leather from drying out. Enjoy the aging process of your Folkstyle Tote as it begins to show the patina that tells its history.

"Wife wanted this bag for work...toting her files and computer to/fro the house. LOVE IT! Durable & timeless piece. Always get compliment ."
"Got it for the wife for Valentine’s Day she loves it ….it’s now her go to bag and it telling me she wants a different color. The leather did feel a little dry but nothing some Obenauf's couldn’t fix. Afterwards it was good to go."
"My wife loves the space almost as the look of this bag. High quality material plus perfect handcrafted process means you get a piece of work that will be around for generations."
"I’ve had my tote for over a year and it is definitely my favorite bag, ever. As many men as women compliment my bag and it has worn beautifully. Design and functionality is top notch, the guys are true craftsmen, as well as extremely helpful and friendly. Great investment."
"Completely in love with this bag!!! Quick response to email questions! Great customer service!!"
"I have purchased 2 totes at the Fair in Bayview. I love them so much,as did my sister in law. My brother wanted to purchase her a bag for Christmas, so I got it ordered, and everything was smooth and it was shipped right to my door and it was ready for my brother to give to my sister in law, when they flew here for Christmas. They live in CA in Orange County, no one has a bag like that. My bags are sturdy, trendy, classic, and better yet, made local. It’s hard to find an all leather handbag."
"My first purchase from Craft & Lore was a tobacco roll for my boyfriend. The quality was excellent, the design was simple. Once I saw that they also made bags for women, I ordered one immediately. The bag is a little larger than I expected, but I absolutely love it. I receive compliments all the time, and am always asked where I bought it from. If you’re looking for a beautiful, simple leather bag, this is the one, no question."
"My favorite purse ever purchased!!"
"Well crafted and awesome quality. My SO stopped using other bags. It is definitely worth it."
"I recently purchased a Tote for my wife and really wanted a brown tote all that was left for Christmas delivery was a black tote after talking to the guys I was expecting a black tote when it came in I was surprised to see a brown tote. The guys really came thru. And my wife loved it. These guys go above and beyond to make their customers happy I will be getting a belt soon. Thanks again guys."
