Why it belongs in ORBIS
Officina della Pelle is a family leather workshop in the historic centre of Lucca, hand-making bags, belts, wallets, diaries and photo albums from vegetable-tanned hides. Its shop and multilingual online store sell the pieces and offer laser-engraved personalisation.
The workshop’s leatherwork grew out of Antonio Capuozzo’s training in artistic bookbinding, before it turned to bags and belts. Ask whether a piece can be personalised when you choose it in the shop.
