Il Fiorentino

The Tattanelli's passion for hand crafted leather goods started in the early 1900's. They began by crafting saddles for the local Florentine people. As it was essential for their way of life. In the 1920's the family shifted to small leather goods and bags. And in the 1960's and 70's moved into fine Italian leather goods recognized for their authentic hand crafted quality and brilliance. Which brings us to Florence in 1978 and a young Florentine man, Antonio Tattanelli. His passion was to share his family's tradition with the world. Antonio created IL Fiorentino, drawing on his extraordinary creativity and knowledge of the luxury leather world and the bespoke artistry of his native city. Since the birth of IL Fiorentino Antonio's infectious love of life has inspired innovative designs. Each year his January and July NEW COLLECTIONS feature bags, jackets and accessories treasured by quality conscious women and men who visit Florence. His beautiful city. Antionio has traveled the world and understands the beauty, elegance and quality necessary to a maintain this level of hand- craftsmanship.
