Patchwork Leather Tote | Chocolate, Mushroom + Onyx

Three leathers, pieced like a small abstract painting. Chocolate leather with the fine wale of corduroy fills one half, and soft mushroom taupe fills the other. On the front, a saddle-brown band cuts across on the diagonal and gives one corner over to smooth onyx black. The back is quieter: chocolate and mushroom, divided by a single saddle stripe.

The handles are forest green webbing trimmed in saddle leather, long enough to sit comfortably on the shoulder. Inside is a garden of ivory blooms on deep green canvas, with a large leather-edged pocket in natural canvas and a second floral pocket across from it.

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.
