Made just for me by the talented designer and seamstress Jeanie Joe using my marbled fabrics, the Mini-Barb is the embodiment of what I want in the perfect on-the-go purse. My creative direction was, "please make me a purse small enough that I don't mind carrying with me at something like an outdoor festival or while traveling but large enough to hold my essentials like my phone and passport." And then my list of demands grew: cross body or over the shoulder AND a pocket inside that perfectly holds my credit cards or cash.

And WOW if Jeanie Joe didn't step up to the plate and create a really fun purse! So many great designer details packed into a such fashionably functional piece! I can't wait for you to get your hands on this. You won't be disappointed!

The Details:
* This is a one-of-a-kind purse made with several pieces of hand-marbled fabric. The flap is lined with silk piping and re-purposed zipper accent.
* Size: 5.5" high x 5.75" long x 1.5" wide
* Strap: Taupe silk dupioni, 47" long with 23" shoulder drop

{NOTE: If shipping rate you are charged is less than actual cost, I will refund the difference!} Barb Skoog is a marbling artist living in Los Angeles specializing in the Turkish form of marbling called Ebru. Marbling is a centuries-old art form where paint is floated on thickened water, a design or pattern is created using special tools, and then paper, fabric, wood, or other materials is placed on top of the water where the paint is then permanently transferred.
