Why it's worth it
Hammered chain hardware earns its own compliments.
The Edit
The D-shape silhouette — a perfectly executed half-circle — makes the geometry do all the talking on this smooth leather shoulder bag. A slim single strap connects via hammered chain hardware with a mixed-metal carabiner closure, the only ornamentation on an otherwise clean face. Interior holds a removable carabiner clip; zipper runs the full length of the flat top edge.
