Old School Handcrafting from Tano Bags

Posted by Ellen, BagExchange.com

We love luxury items, because they make us feel special. We believe that we are some of the privileged who are able to get a hold of a quality good that has been limited in their quantity. High-end leather goods companies encourage the association of crafting with uniqueness. Yet, the problem is that while the ‘$what?!$’ bags are so lust-worthy, they are exorbitantly expensive. .
.
Honestly, how many of us can plunk down the credit card and say, “Hey, I’m in the mood to buy a Hermes today.” It’s not like buying an ice cream cone, chocolate or a lipstick to make you feel better. Good sense says to save, to which we all endeavor. However, lust is lust and there’s got to be a way to satisfy it in tiny increments until you decide to lose all rationality and go for the big buy.
.

The rare beast is the one that offers unadulterated luxury without the uber pricey tag. That’s the boutique handbag, and more specifically, the ones that are not outsourced to some comglomerate manufacturer, but the ones still being cut, hammered, and sewn by a small cache of master craftsmen. And when you can find one of these, it’s a jackpot. Tano Bags exists in this tiny fraternity.

Here’s the deal. Tano Bags is a family owned business that have been in existence for three generations. Most of Tano’s bags cost only around $150 to $250. They are made of, simply, “leather, leather, leather” in the U.S. of A. Tano is strictly a boutique bag with a ‘no department stores’ policy, making the buyer automatically one of the selected few. In fact, there is only one online dealership, musthavebags.com. Most of them have to be pre-ordered. I am thinking of getting the East London, but will have to wait a while as I just purchased a Goldenbleu. Still, yum, yum to all those colorful, squishy, abundantly proportioned lovelies.
