Florence Leather Atelier

A Florence atelier.
Built for your label.

We design, develop, and manufacture private-label leather goods in Italy — from a curated design library or from your own sketches. For independent designers, concept stores, and emerging luxury brands.

About Us

A new atelier with experienced hands.

Before FRAYDA, our team spent years producing leather goods for established Italian brands — work you may already own without knowing it. We started this atelier to open Florentine craftsmanship to the designers and labels we admire most: the independent, the emerging, and the uncompromising.

Three ways to work with us.

Ready-to-Brand Library

05

Production

Your order enters production. Each piece cut, assembled, and finished by hand in Florence.

06

Delivery

Quality-checked, packaged to your specifications, and shipped. Your bags, your brand, our craftsmanship.

Materials & Craft

Tuscan leather.
Florentine hands.

We source our leathers from tanneries in the Santa Croce sull'Arno district — the heart of Italian vegetable tanning for over eight centuries. Full-grain calf, vegetable-tanned, Saffiano, and suede, selected for each project. Hardware in brass, palladium, and antique gold, finished to your specification. Every edge painted by hand, every stitch placed with intention.

Production

Before FRAYDA, we made bags you already know.

Our team has produced collections for established Italian leather-goods brands — managing cutting, preparation, assembly, edge finishing, and quality control for bags carried in boutiques across Europe, Asia, and North America. We disclose specific client relationships under NDA once a project conversation begins.

Florence Atelier Made in Italy Production Experience
Made in Italy

Made in Florence,
by definition.

Every FRAYDA bag is designed, developed, and manufactured in Italy — in compliance with Article 16 of Italian Law 166/2009. Our atelier sits in Florence, at the center of a leather-goods district recognized as the first in Europe for luxury production, with over 2,300 active workshops and tanneries.
