Bottega Veneta Handbags
    

The Bottega Veneta approach to fashion is refined and understated, dispensing with logos and flash to appeal to a customer who is self-assured, sophisticated and confident with his or her own style. Those who appreciate Bottega Veneta embody the idea "when your own initials are enough." Botttega Veneta, a premier Italian leather goods house steeped in the traditions of the master leather craftsman of the Veneto, was founded in 1966 and headquartered in Vicenza. The fashion house has earned a reputation for unsurpassed quality. Its timeless style is exemplified in soft, sensuous, handcrafted handbags and its renowned intrecciato, or interwoven leather style, and signature animal prints are instantly recognizable The Gucci Group acquired Bottega Veneta in February 2001. Bottega Veneta is a one-of-a-kind classic boutique brand that executes the fundamentals of luxury extraordinarily well. In accessories, there are many materials to appreciate - intrecciato nappa, baby soft suede, waxed calf, soft crocodile, and especially lizard, python and karung. Handbags are exquisitely worked, lavishly adorned with embroidery, applique's of exotic leather, and a wealth of metal and tortoiseshell-like hardware. The scale of these bags, most with double top handles, is smaller than in seasons past and their shapes are more delicate. This collection started from a very simple, classically spring feeling of innocence and light. The idea, of course, is that each woman takes what she loves and wears it in her own way. That's how the Bottega Veneta customer has always dressed."
