Saddle purse

A saddle purse is a small bag that has a long strap attached to be worn on the shoulder and is designed to look similar to bags worn on either side of the saddle on a horse. The bag is rounded at the bottom and narrowed at the top, with a buckle to fasten at the front normally being fashioned in leather possibly with patterns embossed. It is a bag that was made popular in the 1970s.
