Plumas is an exotic covered cross body bag, adorned with yellow Hackle and black Emu plumage, and intricate gold and black beading for a modern tribal vibe. The beads are hand stitched to the bag to ensure longevity of life while completing the bags inspiration. The Plumas is not an ordinary bag, and unlike ordinary bags, the Plumas's hardware is stitched through beads to ensure that no exotic detail was overlooked. Consequently, creating an extraordinary accessory to add accentuation without uttering a single word.
