Signature Bags

Free delivery to Europe, the UK and the USA

Our signature bags are the eight Alinari Firenze models we would choose first: the Maxima croc-embossed laptop tote, the Navona shoulder bag, the Alita, the Alinari Tote, the Viviene Tote, the Trevi top-handle bag, the Flavia crossbody and the Milano travel bag. Each is handmade in Florence, Italy, in Italian leather, in a small, considered choice of colours.

If you are new to Alinari Firenze, start here. These are the Italian leather bags that best show what we do: clean shapes, beautiful leather and honest prices, chosen from everything we make so that you do not have to scroll through dozens of styles.

Why these eight Italian leather bags

We chose them for three reasons. They are the shapes our customers come back to, with some of the strongest reviews in our shop, from the Alita to the Navona and the Maxima. Together they cover every part of the day, from the office and the commute to evenings, weddings and weekends away. And each one is shown in a single colour here, with the other colours a click away on the product page, so the collection stays calm and easy to compare.

Handmade in Florence, Italy

Alinari Firenze is based in the Florence area, at Via Volturno 7 in Sesto Fiorentino, and Florence has centuries of leather craft behind it. Our bags are handmade in Florence, Italy, in Italian leather, with gold-tone hardware and linings chosen to be practical every day. We keep the collection small and the prices honest, so that a beautiful Italian bag can be part of everyday life rather than a once-in-a-lifetime purchase. Read why Florence is the home of leather craft and how to tell real Italian leather.

Caring for your bag

Wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth, keep the bag away from direct heat and, when you are not using it, fill it lightly with paper so it keeps its shape. Light colours and quilted leather like a gentle clean a little more often. Our leather care guide explains the rest.
