Brand Profile
Il Bussetto was founded in 2004 by Mauro Gobbi in Milano. After many years spent in the leather trade and in the production of leather goods, he was attracted by a unique and special Tuscan leather craft technique. This distinctive method allows the production of small leather goods moulded on wooden shapes and devoid of any seams. Beside the moulded leather accessories, our collection includes a wide range of classic wallets, designed to meet different needs. Our products are all handmade and hand painted. The leather is tanned using vegetable products derived from trees, then hand painted with colors that are diluted in water, in order to be easily absorbed without leaving any trace on the final product. The glue used for our items is derived from rice, also ensuring all materials are from a natural source. Starting from the idea that tradition should meet the demands of contemporary life, classic styles are updated for the modern day. After a long run-in phase the project took off, and now our skilled craftsmen work full time on the production of Il Bussetto. Even though the production capacity has increased over the years, this is still a niche product, that needs care and craftsmanship. The beautiful product range of Il Bussetto today is the result of the vision of its founder, it reflects his painstaking efforts to reach the highest quality standards, so every single customer can be sure to carry with them something unique and precious.
