Autumn Collection 2026
Handbags made in small numbers from full-grain Italian leather — shaped by hand, softened by time, and designed to be carried for decades rather than seasons.
The Collections
Each silhouette begins as a paper pattern on our workbench in Oltrarno — then is cut, skived and stitched by a single artisan from first seam to final polish.
Just Arrived
The Atelier
We do not rush leather. Every Aurelia bag passes through seventy-two separate operations — cutting, skiving, edge-painting, burnishing — most of them done at a single bench by the same artisan. It takes longer. It is the whole point.
We accept fewer than one in five hides, choosing only full-grain skins with a natural, unforced grain.
Patterns are placed by eye, not by machine, so the bag moves with the leather rather than against it.
Edges are painted and burnished in six passes. Hardware is polished by hand until it warms to the touch.

The Lookbook
A study in movement and soft structure, photographed in the late light of Florence. Quiet pieces for loud lives.
Most Coveted
Pieces our clients return for, season after season — and the ones our artisans are quietly proudest of.
“The leather has softened into something that feels entirely mine. Three years in, it is better than the day it arrived.”
“Understated enough for work, beautiful enough for dinner. I have not carried anything else since.”
“The packaging alone felt like a gift. Then I opened the box. Exceptional from beginning to end.”
