Description
The project stems from a simple observation: a paper bag.
A structure defined by folds and cuts.
Reinterpreted in leather through the artisanal expertise of fine leather craftsmanship.
Thus La Busta by Zanchetti was born.
A journey toward essentiality, transforming the bag into a pure object.
La Busta is entirely made in Italy from 100% leather.
It is constructed like a single sheet of leather that is folded and stitched, following the logic of a paper envelope.
The bag is unlined: inside, the raw material and all construction details remain visible.
Hand stitching is intentionally left exposed both along the sides and at the handle attachments, highlighting the craftsmanship.
Great attention is given to the edges, which are smoothed and hand-painted.
Although the construction appears simple, it is in fact highly complex.
A special internal skiving technique has been developed along the sides, allowing the bag to fold onto itself and always return to its original shape.
A unisex object, timeless and seasonless.
The double handle allows it to be carried by hand or worn on the shoulder.
The exterior features only a heat-stamped logo with “Made in Italy.”
Inside, the branding includes the material composition, the designer’s signature, and a numbered production batch.
