Eco-leather Vintage Bag Set with Flap and Turn-lock Closure
Revolutionize your crochet creations with the Made in Italy eco-leather Vintage Bag Set. Designed to offer an impeccable structure and a retro aesthetic, this matching set combines the practicality of a pre-punched flap with the stability of integrated handles.
Build your vintage style
Match the set with a bag yarn and a matching eco-leather bottom: you will bring to life a sturdy, elegant creation finished with an authentic retro taste.
If you love creating handmade bags that stand out for elegance and sturdiness, this set is the perfect ally. Made of premium Italian eco-leather with attention to the smallest details, it features a robust silver-plated metal turn-lock closure that ensures security and an iconic touch. The handles, firmly anchored to the flap, offer a comfortable and balanced grip, distributing weight evenly to prevent deformation in the crochet bag body.
Construction Detail: How to choose the right accessory
The choice of structural components determines the durability and aesthetic result of a handmade bag. Let's analyze the technical specifications of this vintage set to best integrate it into your next project.
1. Dimensions and Structural Balance
The flap features a width of 28 cm and a height of 10 cm, ideal dimensions for medium and large bags. The handles, with a width of 1.8 cm and a comfortable grip, are attached directly to the flap via reinforced stitching. This configuration distributes the load directly onto the eco-leather structure, preserving the underlying crochet work from excessive tension and structural sagging.
2. Punching and Yarn Compatibility
The flap is equipped with regular and well-finished perimeter holes, designed to facilitate direct attachment with the crochet hook. This set pairs perfectly with high-stability bag yarns such as Thai Sublime, Thai Skinny, or Superthai. The size of the holes allows for the easy passage of medium-to-small size crochet hooks for the starting round, ensuring a clean and effortless join.
3. Turn-lock Closure and Metal Details
The metal turn-lock closure with a silver finish is not only an aesthetic element of vintage inspiration, but a true cornerstone of security. The rotating mechanism ensures a firm closure, preventing accidental openings. The included metal backplate guarantees a stable anchoring on the front of the bag, distributing pressure across the yarn texture.
Compatibility and Care: using it in your bag project
To preserve the beauty and longevity of your eco-leather and metal Vintage Set, follow these simple yet essential maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning the eco-leather: Regularly dust the flap and handles with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. In case of localized stains, use a cloth slightly dampened with water and a drop of mild soap, dabbing gently without rubbing to avoid damaging the surface finish or excessively wetting the attachment holes.
- Caring for metal parts: The silver-plated metal turn-lock closure must be protected from moisture and aggressive chemical agents. To remove fingerprints or dullness, gently rub with a dry flannel cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges that could scratch the polished plating.
- Assembly tip: For a professional result and optimal support, pair the set with a matching Tessiland eco-leather bottom and reinforce the inside of the bag with an Ottoman fabric lining, which will give body and stability to the entire structure.

✨ TESSILAND STUDIOFrequently Asked Questions
How do I start the first crochet round in the holes of the flap?
We recommend using a slightly smaller crochet hook (e.g., 2.5mm or 3mm) than the one suggested for your chosen yarn, just to work the first round of single crochets directly into the holes. Afterwards, you can switch back to the correct hook size to continue the body of the bag.
Can I use this set with Thai Sublime yarn?
Absolutely. Thai Sublime is one of the most suitable yarns for this set thanks to its exceptional structural stability, which perfectly supports the weight of the eco-leather flap and handles without losing its shape over time.
Is the turn-lock clasp already mounted on the flap?
The upper part of the turn-lock is already securely attached to the flap. The female part (the rotating mechanism with the fastening prongs) is supplied separately in the kit to allow you to easily install it on the body of the crocheted bag once completed.
How can I reinforce the area where the turn-lock clasp is mounted?
To prevent the metal from pulling on the crochet stitches, insert a small piece of salpa (bonded leather), stiff felt, or plastic canvas on the back of your work (inside the bag) before folding back the metal prongs of the clasp. This will distribute the tension evenly.
Are the handles removable or interchangeable?
No, the handles in this set are handcrafted and permanently attached to the flap to ensure maximum stability and security during daily use of the bag.
Is it necessary to line the bag when using this set?
Although not mandatory, it is highly recommended to line the bag (for example, with Ottoman fabric) to hide the metal prongs of the turn-lock clasp inside and to give your creation a more finished and professional look.
Which Tessiland bag bottom can I pair with this vintage set?
You can pair it with any Tessiland eco-leather bag bottom in the same color variant. We recommend a rectangular or oval bottom about 25-30 cm wide to maintain harmonious proportions with the 28 cm flap.
