" Intrecciato " an exclusive workmanship of Bottega Veneta

  

Lovers of fine luxury goods are well aware that interlaced or woven leather – “intrecciato” in Italian – remains the exclusive domain of Bottega Veneta, the Venetian workshop. Behind these words lies the Italian luxury goods brand that has always been associated with its iconic product: the woven leather bag, the Veneta.   
 

The founders of Bottega Veneta, Michele Taddei and Renzo Zengiaro, opened their leather workshop in 1966. Looking to stand out from their competitors, they came up with a new way of using fine leathers.   

 
Their idea was to create something new and unique and they realized this through the woven leather.    

 

This original technique allowed the creation of bags completely different from the bags of that time: destructured, soft and in which the design and the quality of the materials were the most important elements. 
 
Bottega Veneta’s philosophy of no logo is reflected in its products, which all do not carry a logo. 

 

Since its introduction, the “intrecciato” workmanship, because of its originality, has become the most recognized and important “trademark” of Bottega Veneta and the exclusive visual signature of the brand. 

 

A tradition that Tomas Maier, Creative Director, has maintained and developed.
