Genuine Leather Small Coin Purse | Baby Owl Design

From the vibrant craft lanes of Shantiniketan, West Bengal, comes a charming little creation — the Baby Owl Leather Coin Purse. More than just a functional accessory, this handcrafted piece carries with it a piece of Indian folk art, a dash of childhood whimsy, and the proud legacy of rural artisans who keep their traditional techniques alive with every stitch.

Adorned with the innocent gaze of a baby owl, this multicolored purse is a cheerful companion — one that brings character to your everyday essentials.

The Owl in Indian Folklore
Across many cultures, the owl has been a creature of mystery, wisdom, and deep symbolism. In India, owls are seen as both mystical and protective. A baby owl, in particular, symbolizes growth, fresh perspective, and the curiosity of youth. Often associated with Goddess Lakshmi in Indian traditions, owls are believed to bring prosperity and insight.

Artisans from Shantiniketan capture this charm in their unique style — with hand-embossed leather and hand-painted detailing, making this baby owl coin purse both meaningful and adorable.

A Glimpse Into Shantiniketan Leather Craft
The roots of Shantiniketan leatherwork go back to the 1940s, when the craft was fostered as part of Rabindranath Tagore’s vision to revive rural arts in Bengal. Today, this tradition continues with families of artisans who’ve mastered the technique of hand-embossing, natural dyeing, and leather burnishing.

Each Baby Owl Coin Purse is the result of meticulous handwork:

Vegetable-tanned leather is shaped and prepared by hand.

The owl design is etched and embossed using traditional tools.

Natural dyes and vibrant colors are carefully hand-painted.

A coat of lacquer seals in the artwork, giving it a lasting sheen.

The purse is stitched by hand, fitted with a zip closure, and lined from within.

No two pieces are exactly the same — every purse is an expression of individuality.

Whether it’s slipped into your handbag or gifted to a young art lover, this purse adds joy to every touchpoint.

Why This Purse is Different
Mass-produced leather goods lack the soul, uniqueness, and cultural value that handmade items like this offer. Every detail — from the uneven strokes of paint to the slight variations in shape — reflects the human hand. It’s a quiet celebration of imperfections that make your piece truly one of a kind.

Machine-made alternatives may look polished, but they can’t replicate the richness of craftsmanship that a handcrafted Shantiniketan piece embodies.

Care Instructions
???? Gently wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth
???? Keep away from water, oil, and prolonged direct sunlight
???? Store in a cotton pouch when not in use
???? Do not wash or scrub — the lacquer coating protects the design
???? Over time, the leather will soften and develop a graceful patina

Proper care will ensure this purse lasts for years — aging beautifully with time and touch.

Whether as a small treat for yourself or a thoughtful gift for someone special, this purse brings a smile — and supports the livelihoods of skilled rural artisans in Bengal.
