Italian Leather On The Go Crossbody Bag - #113
Italian Leather Square Crossbody Bag
This ultra-lightweight, Bay Area made crossbody bag is perfect for someone on the go. Crafted from buttery soft Italian leather, the square silhouette delivers effortless style with everyday practicality.
The bag is finished with a premium YKK EXCELLA® metal zipper featuring fully polished elements. A subtle crystal accent set in gold-tone hardware adds a refined focal point on the front. The adjustable, detachable leather strap is edge-painted in black and includes a crystal detail on the strap loop, paired with shiny gold hardware. Each bag comes with a dustbag and is handmade in beautiful Northern California.
The Handmade Handbag Process
Each design begins with a custom handbag pattern, followed by hand cutting and meticulous sewing to create a high-quality piece meant to be worn for years. Every bag is personally handcrafted by Bay Area handbag designer Lisa Ramos in her Clayton, California studio.
MONOLISA handbags are not mass produced or sold in retail stores. They are available exclusively on this website or at a MONOLISA show. The collection has been featured at the San Francisco American Craft Show and other fine art juried shows.

My Design Process
“My mission is to design beautifully handmade limited edition pieces that add a touch of elegance to any personal style. Each design is an extension of who I am. I fell in love with the creative process because of the unlimited possibilities. My inspiration comes from exploring new ways to improve my designs and creating pieces that require a new skill set — during that process, inspiration is born.”
