Alviero Martini 1A ClasseAlviero Martini Donna Borsa Geo Classic Media Naturale Mod. D006 6000

Bought as a surprise gift for my wife, and I must say, it's been a hit. She saw this on holiday in Italy, but thought it was too expensive to buy.The bag's iconic Australia print is absolutely stunning, giving it a unique and sophisticated look that my wife adores. The quality of the craftsmanship, from the sturdy stitching to the smooth zippers. It's clear that this is a well-made Italian handbag that's built to last at a great price.My wife has been using it for everything from work to weekend outings. The size is just right - not too big to be cumbersome, but roomy enough to hold all her essentials. Much cheaper than buying elsewhere.

This handbag was purchased for a long haul flight so that I could store all I needed. I thought I was purchasing a large tote with a zipper (zippers on handbags are imperative to me when travelling for safety reasons). When it arrived, I was disappointed as its size was much smaller than the proportions pictured with the model on their website. I had to scramble to buy something else at the last minute. The bag itself was beautifully rendered, high quality, nice design...handbags as only the Italians can make them. I would consider buying another from this designer based on this one. I kept it and am using it, but not as a travel bag. I would classify this as a small to medium tote. Because of the size discrepancy, four stars. (Note: Hats off to the Amazon customer service representative who made sure the bag was delivered on time. Despite the fact I did not use it on the trip, they got it to me in record time from Italy on Prime! I was amazed at the service given on this. Superb service from Amazon!)
