What makes a real Italian handbag and what qualities must the best brand have?

Bella Italia - of course, one immediately thinks of dreamlike landscapes, breathtaking cultural treasures and beautiful Italian people! But it’s also where the best and most exquisite Italian bag creations come from. What exactly make handbags from Italy so exceptional? Of course, the highest quality and the best materials, mainly produced in Italy, which are transformed into exclusive accessories, each with a unique style and unmistakable characteristics, in elaborate handwork. Typically Italian, that means uniqueness! 

This is exactly what we at Misuri want to specifically describe why Misuri can be considered one of the finest Italian leather bag brands.

Genuine leather bags by Misuri for both men and women for any occasion

Since 1906 Misuri has designed with Italian passion and style a whole range of genuine leather bags: handbags, shoulder bags, business bags and more, which are nearly always wearable and suitable for different styles of clothing.

What distinguishes Misuri from other bags are the design and subtle details that give each bag a special elegance. Misuri produces not only for the needs of women, but also for the style-conscious man. Whether you are celebrating a party or going to work, Misuri has the right bag for every occasion and for everyone.

Craftsmanship and high quality leather for the best Italian leather handbags 

The history of Misuri began in 1906 and since then we have been producing, in Florence, high quality bags of all kinds both for the lady and for the gentleman. The handicraft techniques used at that time, which made us a leader in the leather industry, are of course still applied today in the same way. 

We use different but exclusively genuine types of leather. Whether it be super soft calfskin, scratch resistant hammered lambskin, or deerskin, in any case they are vegetable tanned. Our prestigious bags for men and women are all handmade examples made from sustainable leather. Each leather bag we make is unique, and hand sewn after the leather is cut and assembled. 

Every single step is done manually with special attention to every detail. We consider this an undeniable mark of quality.

Small details make our leather handbags the finest in Italy

Most bags are adorned with simple bronze or gold details that add a touch of luxury without weighing down any of Misuri's prestigious leather bags. One good example is the vegetable-tanned mini baulette Alba made of genuine leather which is in the style of a doctor's bag. The gradient color in cognac brown of this leather bag with the simple bronze details make Alba so classic that you can really wear it with everything.

All products in the Italian Misuri collection have a timeless design. Soft, natural colors like brown, cognac and caramel are part of the brand's classic collections, but bold colors like red, yellow, or orange can also be found depending on the season. The versatile quilted Sandy handbag made of lambskin in bright red can be worn both on the shoulder or across the body.

The finish also gives the genuine leather handbag a special touch. The gold-gilding is such a finish, where a stamp of real 22-karat gold is printed on the leather product. This can be an ornament or personal initials which makes the genuine Italian handbag unique.

Timeless genuine leather bags become more and more beautiful with time 

What makes leather so unique is that the material becomes more beautiful over time instead of more unattractive. Extended use of a bag creates a beautiful patina in the leather, giving the bag a distinctive look. You can use your bag for many years. Where other bags wear out due to frequent use, genuine leather handbags from Misuri, whether briefcase, travel bag, or wallets for men and women, are always more beautiful to look at over the years!

The success of Misuri Italian leather bags 

Every Misuri leather bag is completely Italian, from the first moment to the completion of the bag, which is why it carries the Made-in-Italy brand. Only Italian selected genuine leathers are chosen. Only vegetable tanned leather is considered for the Florentine company. The Italian-made bags and other leather products range from classic designs like the black Kelly Bag to more modern styles like the hand-quilted Kristen Bag with a sophisticated pattern to meet the diverse needs of clients worldwide.
