Know before you buy
The needlepoint is crafted with high-quality French cotton thread, making it surprisingly resilient. While it is a decorative artisanal piece, the full-grain Italian leather trim provides a sturdy frame that protects the edges from standard wear and tear.
Yes, the clear window is designed to securely hold a standard-sized business card or a custom contact information insert. It keeps your details visible for easy identification while protecting them from moisture and debris.
The tag features a robust, high-quality leather strap designed to withstand the rigors of baggage handling. It functions like a traditional belt buckle, ensuring the tag remains firmly attached to your suitcase handle throughout your journey.
