Third-generation Florentine leatherworker. My grandfather opened this bottega in 1958; I still use his brass hardware press. I split my time between classic briefcases, travel goods, and a small line of hand-lasted derby shoes. Vacchetta leather, saddle stitch, burnished edges — nothing that can't be resoled or restitched.

Testimonials
For Made-to-measure derbies
Remote lasting worked perfectly; the fitting kit is clever. Shoes fit better than anything I've had.
For Firenze briefcase
My father had one from the same bottega. The new one is identical in all the right ways.
Watch strap is lovely; shipping to Berlin took three days flat.
