Marvelous kid’s kjolsäck bag. Part of a girl’s traditional outfit from Rättvik region of Sweden. It is very bright and adorned with lovely pom-pons.

Modern reconstruction of a medieval leather bag worn attached to a belt. Kyivan Rus’ period, to be more precise, the 10th – early 11th century. You can see lovely decorative plates on the bag and belt.

Women’s traditional kjolsäck bag from Sweden. It looks like a separate pocket attached to the waist. The pouch is beautifully decorated.

Lovely hand-woven shoulder bag called “taistra” from western Ukraine, the early 20th century. It is made in the technique of tapestry weave and has a beautiful woven handle. The bag is decorated with schematic bird depictions with their nest – symbols of family, love, and well-being for a couple.
