Carriel

A carriel is a small leather satchel from Colombia.

They are similar in appearance to a saddlebag but worn over the shoulder, usually by men.

Carrieles were traditionally made of rawhide or nutria fur and are typical of the Antioquia region of Colombia.

[1] The carriel is part of folkloric dress of the region[2][3] and is also used by modern businessmen throughout the country.

[disputed (for: conflict with sources)  – discuss] It is said that the word carriel comes from the English "carry-all", but derivation from the French cartier (handbag) is equally likely.
