BERLINER BAGS Vintage Genuine Leather Tote Bag Seville, Handbag, Large Shopper for Women

This bag met all my expectations. The color is beautiful. It is roomy and has front and inside pockets for phone and even a little hook for keys. Quality inside and out. The leather is soft and will age well. Will use mink oil occasionally. Very happy with this purchase..a lot of bag for the price.

I really like the quality and nice features of this bag! The bag is large with a place for keys, phone and nice sized pockets. The leather is good quality and not too soft or too stiff. Glad I came across this brand!

This was an anniversary present for my wife and she loves it, she uses it everyday. She owns this purse and a Coach purse -- and she prefers this purse.Pros:- 100% genuine goat leather- affordable- well made/sturdy- space laid out for pen holder (two of them), a phone, and miscellaneous items in zipper compartment- free attachable zipper pouch- good length of straps for petite wife- is able to hold many things wife may need and for unexpected trips/delays/misc (extra snacks/drinks/diapers/wipes/etc for children)Cons:None so far.Update: I posted this review on May 9th of 2022 and today, February 06 of 2024 is when the magnetic portion that closes the purse has finally broken. My wife still loves the purse and is thinking of getting a different Berliner Bag purse, specifically the Julia one. Still a nice and sturdy bag, just the magnetic part has broken.Update as of 07 February 2024:My wife is very happy now, as I applied gorilla glue (the one specifically for leather and metals) and glued the magnetic piece on the purse and it is as good as new. Very sturdy and she’s happy that her purse is fixed. She did not want another. So far she has used this purse everyday since purchasing it in March of 2022. If your snap breaks off, try some gorilla glue and it’ll be as good as new.Update as of 03 August 2024:My wife’s magnetic snap came off again even after the gorilla glue application back in February. We have glued it back on with gel super glue and hope it will last longer now. Attached are pictures with clamps to hold down the magnetic snaps so the super glue can glue and stay on the parts where we want it to. Let’s see what happens next. She has been using this purse and only this purse since purchasing back in March 2022.

If you are looking for a bag that will carry belongings for a trip/flight; a work bag, to include your computer, notes, pens, etc; or just a great looking "shopping bag" to replace the pack mule mentality of multiple bags, I recommend this Berliner bag.First, the craftsmanship is fabulous. The leather is sturdy and durable, and will develop a nice patina as it is used.Unexpectedly, I have dressed this bag up and down, and it runs the gamut from Parisian chic to farmer's market sensibility.It holds a lot! I have a few, smaller organizer bags that I insert, just because that makes it easier to switch out my bag, I find they really help with a large tote like this. But even without, there are pen loops; a zipperered pocket and an outer pocket; I also love the hook inside for a great place to hang my keys.Highly recommend this bag.

I needed a classy bag that would accommodate my crochet project along with daily stuff and a laptop (once in a while) that I could carry everyday. I didn't want something too little but not so big my stuff got lost in it. I bought a leather bag I thought would do the job but it ended up being too heavy and the middle zipper section was in the way of my crochet projects. It was big enough but not sectioned optimally to meet my bizarre hodge podge of stuff. I saw this bag and loved how square it was but medium in size. It's a soft leather and light. I don't carry my laptop often but when I do, it fits beautifully. The magnetic closures are strong so I don't have to fuss with it coming apart until I open the bag. Oh the leather smells so nice too...quality construction is in every part of this bag; all the way to the change purse attached to the hardware. (I keep my ear buds in it) I love thoughtfulness and simplicity in things and the pockets are large and not cut up so you have plenty of separation for anything. Basically this bag can be used for anything...overnight, work, crafts, etc. It's not made to lock the owner into a purse or tote...its perfect for either function. I use the cell phone holder for my crochet hooks and attached a bag light to the key hook. I will definitely buy from this company again. Not that anything would wear out but the craftsmanship is stellar.

Really large and can hold a lot, with many pockets inside for organization. Lightweight, well made. Beautiful color.

I was afraid that this purse would be too big, but the straps are the perfect length to make it just right for a shoulder bag. That said, it has plenty of room for everything I need to carry. My full-sized wallet fits into the inner zip compartment. My Galaxy Ultra is too big for the phone pocket, but my glasses fit nicely in that space, and my phone is secure in the outer pocket, which is handier, anyway. One of my main reasons for needing a new purse was that my phone was almost falling out of the exterior pocket on my old handbag. I can fit my Kindle, knitting projects, and everything else in the main compartment, too. The finishing details and materials of this bag are beautiful. Highly recommend.

This leather purse is absolutely perfect! It is actually genuine, leather, it feels great like leather, it smells awesome like real leather, and it is able to hold all of the items I need inside my purse, or I can use it as a carry bag. This was a gift from my husband from this past Christmas, and it’s absolutely perfect! All of the accessories that go along with this product are also wonderful to have. They complete the entire set and fulfill all of my needs in having a purse.
