Suede Iridescent Paint Splatter Crossbody with Matching Pouch – Bag 154
Elevate your everyday style with this one-of-a-kind crossbody bag crafted from soft black suede featuring an iridescent paint splatter pattern. Designed to feel both artistic and refined, this handcrafted handbag blends a lightweight structure with expressive surface detail. The subtle interplay of color and light across the suede creates depth and movement, making each bag uniquely wearable art.
Rich purple leather accents add a bold yet elegant contrast against the black suede, while the splatter design comes alive with expressive tones of gold, silver, purple, pink, and blue. Each metallic and luminous detail catches the light differently, creating movement and depth across the surface—like wearable abstract art. A gold chain strap introduces an additional refined metallic element, tying the color story together. The bag also includes a matching mini suede pouch—perfect for storing makeup, money, or personal belongings—so you can stay beautifully organized while maintaining a cohesive, artful aesthetic.

THE HANDMADE HANDBAG PROCESS
Each MONOLISA handbag is handcrafted personally by artist Lisa Ramos in her Clayton, California studio. Her design philosophy centers on creating high-quality handbags designed to be worn, enjoyed, and appreciated for years to come.
Every bag is a one-of-a-kind piece. The body of the crossbody is constructed using a single piece of leather, resulting in a clean and sophisticated silhouette. Each design undergoes an extensive process that includes sourcing premium materials, developing a custom handbag pattern, hand cutting leather, skiving, working with adhesives, sewing, and finishing each detail by hand.
MONOLISA handbags are not mass-produced or sold in retail stores. Pieces are available exclusively online or in person at select fine art juried shows throughout California. Lisa’s mission is to design beautifully handmade limited-edition pieces that add a refined sense of elegance to any personal style.

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.
