We have the big sister of this bag in our range for a long time: a ladies bag made of cowhide with a large flap, which increases the bag volume if necessary. This small version - without flap - is not a space miracle, but can be used for any occasion and any outfit and yet just big enough to store wallet, cell phone and the like. Keys can be securely attached to a carabiner with leather strap, so you can find them again quickly. The side zipper pocket of the otherwise undivided main compartment can hold small items. A divided leather pocket (W 3 or 9 x H 12 cm) ensures that you have pens or cell phone immediately at hand when they are needed.
On the outside, the bag is made of supple cowhide - whose raw material comes from cattle in Germany, Switzerland and France. The wide, adjustable strap is made of the same leather and is comfortable to wear on the body. Inside it is lined with light pigskin. Both leathers are grain leather, so it is only the top layer of leather with the grain. Its surface is not sprayed with color or covered, so the natural features of the skin - and also some traces of life on the pasture - come to the fore.
To close the bag is a full-width running polished (and therefore very smooth) metal zipper. The bag is made by the Lüneburg-based manufacturer Ackermann, which stands for functional leather goods that are also visually and haptically convincing. The ladies cowhide bag is available in two heights: 19 and 30 cm.

Since the 1980s, the leather manufacturer Ackermann has stood for handcrafted and resource-conserving production. Ackermann uses exclusively high-quality leathers tanned in German or European tanneries with minerals, vegetable substances or ingredients of animal origin (for example, fish oil for tanning deerskin). Beate Sedlacek and Karl-Henning Hohmann create the designs – the Bauhaus says hello – primarily based on an idea of functionality while reflecting on the characteristics of the respective leather and its surface. The resulting design is timeless, dispenses with superfluous details and features a clear cut in which every seam has its functional artisanal justification. Therefore, the leather can show all its strengths, including its visual and haptic qualities. Experienced sewists implement the designs in the best bag-making manner. Ackermann manufactures most of the articles at its headquarters in Lüneburg and has certain product lines made in a Czech partner company.
