Two-Tone Leather Tote | Dove & Chocolate Corduroy

Look twice. What reads as soft chocolate corduroy is in fact leather, embossed with a fine wale and paired on the front with a panel of velvety dove gray. A slim saddle-brown stripe runs down the center of each side, and the back is all chocolate, so the bag shows two different faces depending on how you carry it.

The handles began life as a forest green woven belt, now trimmed in leather and long enough to sit comfortably on the shoulder. Inside is a garden of ivory blooms on deep green cotton canvas, with two pockets for the things you reach for most.

Luka, Asheville’s self-described “mini mötley manufacturer,” designs, hand cuts, and creates every piece using locally procured materials. Leather has natural variations, handles are often upcycled belts, linings are repurposed fabrics, and leftover leather becomes wallets and tiny handbags, so very little goes to waste. No two are alike, and this one won’t be made again.
