The idea from Markus from München:

Hello Jochen, hello Urban Change Labers, I have another request right now. I'd like an offer on a high-end leather purse. The part is supposed to last 10 years again, so it can be a bit more expensive. The whole should be made of brown leather (outside) with colorful fabric applications (inside) or applications inside and outside, I am open for suggestions. I need a coin pocket with push button, two pockets for notes and space for about 10 cards. The dimensions should be about 12×10 cm. Many thanks and many greetings Markus

Very nice material and processing only the coin pocket is a little bit small.
But all is well.

Dear Marcus
My name is Isabel and I am happy to give you an offer for the leather purse.
I have read through your briefs and noted your ideas.
First I need to know the shade of brown leather you would prefer. We have rich brown (chesnut brown) as attached in one of the images, then there is a dark brown (mocca brown) also attached. Kindly let me know what is your preference.

The second thing is the fabric I have brown West African print handmade fabric that we can use, or we can do Africa colorful kitenge fabric.
The other proposal is we can have a small details fish leather or brown cow hide.

For the coin pocket we can do the press button as per your proposal or we can use a zip whichever you prefer.

Please have a look at the attached photos and let us share ideas and we can initiate the project.

Best Regards

Isabel

Hello, Isabel,

thanks for the message!
As color I imagine a rich brown, in addition a beautiful colorful kitenge fabric, would be great, if you can adjust a few sample photos of the fabric. And a press stud for the coin pocket, please.
I'm looking forward to the offer!
Best regards
Mark
