A Compact Italian Leather Envelope Top Handle Bag
Casimira is a compact Italian leather top handle bag designed for women who prefer a refined structured handbag without unnecessary bulk. Handcrafted in Italy and measuring 26 × 15 × 7 cm, its slim horizontal proportions make it particularly suited to city appointments, lunches, dinners and occasions when a larger everyday handbag would feel excessive. Carry it elegantly by the curved top handle or attach the long strap for convenient shoulder or crossbody wear.

Distinctive Envelope Flap Design
Casimira's defining feature is its broad envelope-style leather flap, which creates a clean geometric silhouette across the front of the bag. A slim vertical clasp provides a restrained focal point, allowing the structured shape and Italian leather to remain at the centre of the design.

Flap Styling with a Secure Zip Closure
Beneath the envelope flap, a top zipper provides an additional layer of security for the main compartment. This thoughtful combination gives Casimira the polished appearance of a traditional flap handbag while providing the reassurance of a fully zipped main opening when you are moving through the city, travelling or carrying personal valuables.
A Slim 7 cm Profile for Selected Essentials
At just 7 cm deep, Casimira is intentionally slimmer than a conventional organiser satchel or work handbag. Its compact interior is designed for a selective everyday carry such as a smartphone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses and smaller personal essentials, keeping the silhouette neat rather than encouraging unnecessary bulk.
A rear slip pocket provides convenient access to flat items you may want to reach without opening the main compartment. Pair Casimira with one of our Italian leather wallets for a beautifully coordinated compact carry.
Top Handle, Shoulder or Crossbody Carry
The curved leather top handle gives Casimira its elegant handbag character and works naturally with tailored daytime outfits as well as more polished evening looks. When hands-free carry is preferable, attach the long strap to wear the bag over the shoulder or crossbody. This versatility allows Casimira to adapt easily between appointments, shopping, travel, lunches and dinners.
