Genuine Leather Small Coin Purse | Peacock Design | Green

From the heart of West Bengal’s artisan hub, Shantiniketan, comes a vibrant creation that captures the elegance of India’s national bird—the peacock. The Genuine Leather Peacock Design Coin Purse is a compact yet expressive piece of traditional artistry. Handcrafted using time-honored embossing and painting techniques, it reflects the grace, pride, and beauty that the peacock has symbolized across Indian culture for centuries.

This purse doesn’t just carry your coins. It carries the story of rural craftsmanship, folk motifs, and heritage that continues to thrive through human hands, one piece at a time.

Peacock: The Eternal Muse of Indian Art
In Indian mythology, poetry, and temple architecture, the peacock stands for beauty, pride, and divine grace. Associated with Lord Krishna and Goddess Saraswati, the peacock is seen dancing under the monsoon clouds, its feathers shimmering with celestial colors.

Artisans in Shantiniketan draw inspiration from this majestic bird to create embossed designs that mirror its grandeur. The hand-embossed peacock on this purse—tail feathers spread wide in proud display—is more than decoration. It’s a cultural emblem brought to life in vivid color.

Crafted by Hand: A Heritage Passed Through Generations
The Shantiniketan leather craft tradition traces its roots to the 1940s, nurtured by Rabindranath Tagore’s vision to revive rural Indian arts. Today, it stands as a living tradition, practiced by skilled artisans in and around Shantiniketan.

Creating each Peacock Design Coin Purse involves multiple steps, all performed by hand:

Vegetable-tanned leather is locally sourced and cut to shape.

The peacock design is etched and embossed using traditional metal tools.

Artisans paint the details using natural dyes, highlighting the feathers, beak, and background.

A coat of lacquer is applied to seal the artwork and give the piece a gentle sheen.

The purse is stitched and assembled, complete with a sturdy zipper.

Each piece reflects the slight variations and textures that only come from handmade work—making every purse subtly unique.

Why It’s Different from Machine-Made Products
This is not a factory-made item. It doesn’t come off a conveyor belt with carbon-copy precision. It’s made slowly, with care, by hands that have been practicing this craft for decades. Every brushstroke, cut, and stitch reflects hours of thoughtful work.

Unlike synthetic or machine-pressed purses, this one is alive with human touch, subtle textures, and the individuality that machines can never replicate.

Care Instructions
To maintain the beauty and longevity of your Peacock Coin Purse:

???? Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth
???? Keep away from direct sunlight, water, and moisture
???? Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials
???? Store in a cotton pouch when not in use
???? Handle with care to allow the lacquer finish to retain its shine

Over time, the leather will develop a natural patina, adding more character to your purse.

Each purse helps sustain traditional artisan communities while giving you something truly special to carry with pride.
