THE AURORA MESSENGER

designed as a piece of couture equipment, for the Git Er Dun Gal who has her irons in the fire.  grab and fill with all of the rightful trappings needed for the day or the excursion. THE AURORA  is a striking new twist on the messenger. certainly similar to THE VALENTINA, but smaller, with its own distinguishing details. 63 hand hammered copper rivets on the front flap alone, makes this carry good a real Looker!

if you have an appreciation and preference for well made products, you will find yourself content with this hard working bag. no corners cut, no aspect rushed, built with an emphasis on traditional tenets and techniques - enriching the way you live, one stylish step at a time.

 SITALISA MARIE is a Design Build business. every measure is taken to keep production methods 100% LEAN. this means accountability: patterns are puzzle pieced onto the leather skins, so very little scrap lands on the studio floor, aiming for zero waste whenever possible.  this also means your pieces are made once an order is confirmed, producing only what is required, reducing environmental impact by eliminating unwanted waste & stock. upcycled leathers are always available to select from as well as domestically tanned full grain skins as well.

SITALISA MARIE LEATHER GOODS,

mindfully, master crafted, one piece at a time, in

 Madison, Wisconsin, on the shore of Lake Monona.

 GOOD CHEER & WARM WISHES EVERYONE!!!

STEP OUT WITH ARTEMIS & ILLUMINA

oh how i wish you could feel this leather, it is beyond sensational!

THE ARTEMIS is the embodiment of paired down refinement ...

only what is necessary, only what is beautiful. 

available in many color options in new and re-purposed skins.

take aim, stalk your truth in the latest rif on the hip sling.  

THE ILLUMINA, which is slightly smaller than THE FANETTE,

is still large enough to accommodate a smart phone and all other 

necessities a gal must have at her hip at any time. 

i can attest to THE ILLUMINA'S high performance power when enjoying 

a night out dancing... keep it on you. the belt is removable, thus, it can be used 

on it's own, use THE ILLUMINA as a wallet or clutch... or step out with it all unified. 

i can assure you... you will find her to be an instant soul mate. she is a piece you will use more often than not, knocking that CPW, (cost per wear) down low in now time flat.

THE ROSA STUDDED CLUTCH

here we have the ROSA STUDDED CLUTCH. named after my own mama and original muse. in this new rif on the clutch silhouette, you will get a row of rivets at the bag's 

opening, and a playful tassel at the zipper pull. 

the tension between raw and polished, primitive and industrial, sophisticated and simple, is explored in this design, which will make it a worthy member in your curio cabinet of carry goods.

this particular rendition of THE ROSA STUDDED CLUTCH, is handcrafted of a 5 ounce blush pebbled nappa ~ so sturdy and sublime. 

please note that THE ROSA is available in a multiplicity of colors based on current color stock in my studio.

thank you so very much for stopping in!

SOPHISTICATION IS UNIVERSAL - MEET FANETTE

i am pleased to introduce to you the FANETTE HIP SLING, 

which brings a modern vision to a time tested saddle bag silhouette. 

indigenous people the world over, throughout all time, 

have utilized this fine form of carrying.

  the FANETTE will enhance your efficiency, affording you the luxury 

to explore your momentum and serendipity in a hands free style.

 having all your essentials close by, in this way,  lends a real "joie de vivre"

 to all manner of excursions. 

 i have fused my affection for a luxurious, 

relaxed sensibility with some serious nomadic panache. 

 the FANETTE is crafted of 5 ounce nappa leather with solid 

brass hardware and hand hammered copper rivets.

 quality materials are very important to me. high end leathers and solid metal 

age beautifully and are a very significant part of this creative bravura.

 sophistication is universal,and lasts forever.

this hip sling can be worn in front, on the side, or in the rear. 

she is a true multi-functional piece as, the belt can be removed

and worn separately, the pouch can be used as a clutch, or of course, 

sling it all together and away you go.  

in this layout the FANETTE is shown in a dark chocolate 

and can be made to order in a variety of colors, depending on current

color availability. 

GRAZIE MILLE!

i so appreciate your stopping in to view the newest member of the SITALISA MARIE

carry good collection.
