 You have to realize that manufacturers can use cheaper leathers to make all of those embossed designs such as those on most Brahmin bags That's OK. All manufacturers seem to be doing it as part of their offerings in the handbag world. But it costs more to produce a good smooth leather which has to be of higher-quality to begin with. I'm not a fan of all the faux reptile and embossing, anyway,  but I'm also very much aware that it's not the best quality leather.

@libbyannE: I never realized that, b/c l thought the embossing process requires extra labor, thus increasing the cost of the bag. But it makes sense that they would use a lower grade of leather, as the embossing would camouflage that fact.

I hear ice cubes tinkling in a tall glass when I look at this splashy floral.
