Product Description

Handbraided handbags are a rare and extraordinary craft, with only a handful of artisans in Tuscany still mastering this intricate art. Each bag is created using naturally tanned leather, with approximately three times the amount of leather required for a regular handbag—up to 160 meters of leather ribbons are needed for each piece.

The process is incredibly time-consuming, requiring days of careful work to achieve the braided pattern, demanding precision, skill, and immense patience. It takes a team of four to five artisans to bring each bag to life, with each step reflecting centuries of Tuscan tradition.

These handbags are living pieces of heritage, carrying with them the expertise and dedication of those who continue to preserve this rare and exceptional craft.
