Named for the wide, curved shape with a shallow draft the Small Boat Bag is an elfin purse with a bit of added sparkle that further enhances its unmistakable appeal.

You can choose the Small Boat Bag in the fabric you want. Select your favorite material from our list of fabrics and it will be specially created and made by hand, with great care - just for you!  It takes about 4 to 6 weeks to have your custom order made and delivered to your doorstep.

Adorned with a coordinating button this little charmer has a surprising capacity to hold your daily essentials.

The smallest of our three Boat Bags, this tapestry purse has many features that make it practical to use. Its two exterior pockets and two interior pockets give it the organizing capacity of a larger bag. The handle is also long enough to enable this purse to be slipped over your shoulder and tucked under your arm. This tapestry shoulder bag has a zippered closure at the top and is lined with our waterproof nylon lining fabric.

This elfin pocketbook with an elegant spirit also has all of the pragmatism of mom’s sensible shoes.

 10 1/2" wide, 5"high, 3 1/2" deep.      Shoulder Strap: 1/2" wide x 20" long.

A Note About Our Construction And Washability

Since 1989 River Sauvageau has been designing and creating high quality bags in luxe fabrics with elegant and practical styling. With an emphasis on construction detail never seen by the end user, her bags have proven to please for almost three decades now.

The whole line has been designed and made to be machine washable, a great boon with fabric bags. Machine wash in cold water with mild detergent and air dry. Dirt and skin oils can wear on fibers therefore washing your bags occasionally, especially if used daily, will extend their life.

No leather is used on these vegan bags.

Made in the USA.
