Handbags made in Maine, somewhere in the middle of an alfalfa field! The name "Erda" is an ancient goddess of seasons and productivity, pretty much depicting the creative spirit and environment where they are made. Erda began in 1971 by Patti Dowse, who now has 14 collaboraters. The bags feature interesting shapes in either ultra soft deerskin, or boldly printed fabrics. Some are reversible, some have versatile straps to wear long, short or around the waist. All bags are roomy and casual.

To reverse to solid black chenille fabric showing, Flip the Flap and you have the zip top revealed, covering the open pockets now under the flap.

erda555wolivias.jpg Erda Great Pumpkin Bag in Olivia
$94.00
Erda1a.555wolivia
Great Pumpkin is the larger version of a favorite, this one measures about 12 x 5 inches on semicircular bottom, rises 8 inches tall at the center and little higher where the fabric meets strap. Cords accent the shaping on the front. This bag will defy you to not find room for everything essential (okay, not file folders)! On the flat back side is a full open pocket. On the front is the curved zipper opening. Interior is unlined, but there are two open pockets along the back wall to organize. 1 inch wide strap adjusts up to 48 inches long (cross-body), and you can adjust it shorter (dare we say super-sized fanny pack too, but without quick release)? The Olivia fabric is a tightly woven satin sheen with black and olive threads doing a colro shift in the background, big embroidered spots of olive green, orange, camel, copper and turquoise blue.
