The Mary Bag "Raven" $240

Mary, mother of Jesus ~ She was a simple girl with a big job.  The Mary Bag ~ A simple handbag with a big job. It wasn't until after I had named this handbag that I made that connection.  Over a year ago, I decided that I wanted to make a collection of bags based on 7 of my favorite women from scripture.  I called it "The Chicks Collection." My initial design for "Mary" just didn't stick with me; I didn't LOVE it. After a while, the design evolved into a classic look that will be a staple in your wardrobe for years to come.


  

The story of the Raven comes from I Kings 17:1-6 where the prophet Elijah flees from the evil King Ahab to the brook of Cherith. It was here that the ravens fed Elijah "bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening", reminder of God's providence and hope.


This gorgeous handbag is not only big, but it does a big job for you.  Tucked away behind the clean, contemporary lines of its modern exterior lies three large compartments and six side pockets.  This is not a catch-all bag like most big bags are.  The Mary Bag is heavily organized for those women who like to keep things in order.

Ahhhhh, this is where the "Raven" theme comes in. I love the little 'surprise' when you look inside this bag. The organization inside this rivals that of our Covent Garden Bag. Marvelous compartments and pockets that help keep this deep bag neat and tidy!! No more losing your worldly goods in a "catch-all" bag.
