This bag is handmade of leather, it measures 18 x 23 cm and can be closed with a strap. The bag is decorated with motives in the art style of the Magyars, just like the original. It is inspired on the art style of the Magyars. The Magyars were a nomadic people that invaded Europe during the 9th century AD and settled in Hungary.
