Wow that's some intricate painting! Beautiful. I've never had a bag like this. What do you all think of it?

@smoochy I think it is beautiful but I need another handbag like I need a hole in my head. I do love it!

These designs are well done, they just don't do anything for me, I have one Anuschka crossbody purse and a couple of smaller accessory pieces and think that's where I'll probably stop. I haven't used the purse for at least a couple of years. I just feel awkward carrying it. It almost seems like a little girl's purse. The only thing I've consistently used since I purchased it has been my checkbook cover.

I think Anuschka bags are garish and tend to be cartoonish. I'd rather see plain leather.

i agree the paint is too strong. The bags are beautifully painted, and I want to like them. I wish they were more like the Jane Yoo bags we bought in boutiques in the 80's. I had several of those. They are subtle, yet distinctive. I have seen a few on eBay if anyone is interested in making a comparison between the two companies. (My skill set does not include posting photographs.) Switching to this style of painting would be simple for these artists and much less jarring to the eye.

I know that they have plenty of followers and those that like them, but I wish they wouldn't paint the whole bag. Just an accent flower, design or something. They do have some beautiful designs but for me they take up too much of the bag. Their bags have some great organization but for me less would be more. Less paint more leather.

I have 2 of the anuschka bags . Got them on clearance, otherwise I’m not sure I would have bought them . So glad I did ! They are so beautiful in person . I think they will last a long time ; they’re so well made .

I've been using an Anushka 3 fold wallet for at least 12 years. It's just now starting to show a little bit a wear on the paint but otherwise it's like new. Just recently gave it a good cleaning with some diluted Simple Green. Tried to find an exact replica of it but the particular one I have is apparently no longer in their lineup. It's shades of tan with butterflies on it. Colorful but not gaudy or overdone. Still get compliments on it when I pull it out to pay cashiers.

@smoochy

I have many, have gifted many.

Brilliant organization inside.

Fantastic art.

Some art, for me, is not appealing, others breathtaking.

These, from my collection.

I place many bags on shelves throughout my home, or hanging from doors, as Art, to enjoy.

@smoochy Thanks for posting, for some reason the Holiday bag is calling my name.

It's unique, I don't believe I ever saw a Holiday bag like this.

I purchased one of their organization handbags a year or more ago, smaller then this TS, and although the art is a very nice butterfly theme, the organization part for credit cards etc does not have enough structure and tends to want to fold in half toward the center kind of hard to explain. For this reason, am reluctant to purchase another one. I do like the art on the Holiday theme one today but window of opportunity for carrying it not worth my limited storage space the rest of the year.

They are pretty but not my taste. I would probably not use often enough. I do like that truck one though. If I had money to burn and places to go I would probably have a lot more of everything. LOL

I just started checking HSN and going to from here on out too.

In all the years that HSN has been selling Anuschka bags, I only saw one bag where the painting was a bit more subtle. I believe it may have been a floral design, but it wasn't in the budget for me to purchase at that time. Since then, I look, admire, but never purchase. I agree with others who say that the designs tend to be too strong, too vivid.

I also wish that they would experiment with other designs, just for a change. As another poster suggested, maybe if they left the bag plain and just painted a design in the corner, or on just one side, it would appeal to more customers.
