Every order is priced on WhatsApp, together with the design and details you choose. Message us with the piece you have in mind and we will quote you a price there.
Can I order just one bag?

How long will my order take?

Working with us as a brand
Do you manufacture for other brands?

About the python leather
Is the leather genuine python?
Yes. Every python piece is made from genuine python leather, cut with the scales aligned and stitched by hand. No skin enters our workshop without verified CITES documentation from licensed, traceable Indonesian suppliers.
Are all pieces python?
No. The Batavia Raja Lizard Leather Men's Wallet is made of lizard leather. Every other piece, bags and small leather goods alike, is python.
What colors and finishes do you offer?
We work with 30+ colors and finishes, developed for durability and consistency. Ask us on WhatsApp to see the current range.
Will my bag have the same pattern as the photo?
No. Every python skin has its own scale pattern, so each piece is unique. Your bag follows the design and color you agreed with us, and its scale pattern is its own.
Can I choose a different color for a piece?
Yes. You can choose from our 30+ colors and finishes. Tell us on WhatsApp which piece you like, and we will show you the current colors and confirm your choice before production.
Payment and worldwide shipping
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes. We ship worldwide from our workshop in Jakarta, Indonesia. Ask us on WhatsApp about shipping to your country.
Will my order include CITES documents?
Yes. CITES documents are included with every shipment, whether it is one bag or a production order.
How can I pay?
We accept bank transfer and major credit cards. Your order is final once payment is confirmed.
Can I import a python bag into my country?
That depends on where you live. Some countries need their own import paperwork for python products, and some countries or states restrict import or sale. Please check with your local customs or wildlife authority before you order. We can share the CITES documents for your shipment on request.
After your bag arrives
What if my bag has a defect?
Manufacturing defects are repaired free of charge at our Jakarta workshop. Contact us on WhatsApp or by email with your order details and a short description of the problem, and we will explain the next steps.
How do I contact you?
