Textured Italian Leather Handbags
Are Durable, Lightweight

David Rand's leather handbags reveal intimate knowledge of the trade.

His father started manufacturing women's pocketbooks in 1969.

Bags by Pinky is now located in Miramar, Florida, and the elder Mr. Rand still comes to the plant every day.

These purses are made in America. The feather-light leather is imported from Italy.

Rand says that metallic finished leather will continue as popular accent accessories.


The bag pictured appears to use ostrich skin.

In fact, it is part of elaborate embossing, pressing and dying processes. Rand and his wife figure out how to combine the textures and colors in attractive combinations.

This deep blue metallic is an unusual color. Three different embossed textures are used. This large Italian pocketbook is lightweight and durable because of the high quality leather.
