Anuschka Women's Hand Painted Genuine Leather Satchel Bag - Triple Compartment, Zip Closure, Multiple Pockets & Detachable Pouch | Perfect for Work, Travel & Everyday Use

Why would someone give a 5 star rating for a handbag she returned, you might ask. Well, the handbag was flawless. I had bought another beautiful Anuschka bag (you can read my review for it) a couple of years ago. It's my favorite. I also have wallets and a make-up case from this company, and I decided it was time to add to my little collection.If you're a purse kinda gal, you know when you first hold one whether it's going to be the "one". As soon as I opened the carefully packed box, I knew this wasn't, but I kept it a couple of days, thinking it would grow on me. When it didn't, I regretfully contacted the company to inquire about returning it. They are so wonderful to work with, no hassles. So, I let it go. I'm still in love with Anuschka, and I'm searching for my next true love. I hope people don't abuse their return policy and that it's always there. I've bought handbags online when returning it would have been too expensive and too much trouble, so I kept it and sold it for a dollar or two at a garage sale. That'll leave a bad taste in your mouth.The bag that I've used almost constantly for 2 years still looks nearly mint. The colors are as vibrant as ever, and I get lots of compliments and women wanting to know what brand it is and where I got it. The Anuschka 469 DNP Satchel is somewhat smaller, and doesn't have quite as many amazing pockets, but it was more about the design. I'm a Baby Boomer (and also an artist); maybe it's a little too "loud" for me. Somehow it doesn't seem quite as "painterly" as some of the others. I'm sorry if that doesn't explain it, but like I said, we know when it's the one that will go with us through time. I would recommend Anuschka over any of the other designer type bags I own. Even my most beautiful Coach bag has lain in its dust cover since I discovered Anuschka.
