Due Zeta
When I spoke about venetian glass jewelry a while ago, I went into detail to describe some of the ancient techniques that the artists of Murano island use to create their products (to the extent I could learn about them, as they still well kept secrets), and I even named a few firms that specialize [...]
Mario Bologna Shoes
In a previous post, I said that the handbag is a woman’s most precious accessory, a friend that is always by her side. However, I must say that her shoes are also up there on the list. Many times, they are all that a woman cares for. For that reason, getting the most beautiful pair [...]
Francesco Biasia Handbags
The handbag is probably the most fundamental accessory in a woman’s daily life, a faithful companion that never leaves her side and helps her sort things out in an easy and practical manner, while making sure that she looks her best. Handbag designers have always kept that in mind when coming out with a new [...]

As the center of craftsmanship for many centuries, the city has given birth to a myriad of small shops producing some of the most fascinating jewels the world has ever seen. With a large number of artisans and [...]
Chiarugi Leather Bags and Accessories
I love this specialization in Italy. Whereas Venice is the absolute authority on everything related to Murano Glass, the Florentines are unsurpassed when it comes to fine leather working. An entire industry was built here around this passion and one of the companies that’s been continuously perfecting its technique over the years is Chiarugi Firenze. [...]
Forzieri Murano Glass Jewelry
You wouldn’t expect Forzieri, one of the best know Florentine brands to have much to do with the Murano glass, something that essentially belongs to Venice. You will definitely be surprised, however, to find out that not only do they have their own line of Murano glass jewelry, but that it actually is awesome! Take [...]
Where Are Haurex Watches Made?
There are a few people who’ve asked me this a few times in the past, so I guess it’s something that should be cleared. So, where are they manufactured, indeed? Haurex is an Italian company with the headquarters in Bologna, in the north of the country. Well, they make their famous timepieces in the same [...]
