Leather toiletry bag
Leather toiletry bag
Cellerini
Cellerini has been making leather goods in a first-floor atelier on Via del Sole, in central Florence, since the late 1950s. Alongside the bags and wallets that are the workshop's main work are the small objects that travel with you - and the toiletry bag is one of them.
This is a soft-sided pouch, sized for the few things you carry to a sink in the morning - a tube, a brush, a small bottle or two - and built to hold them whether the bag is upright on a bathroom shelf or laid flat in a case. The body is fine-grained calfskin, supple but substantial, with a silver-plated zip across the top and a small leather pull tab. The base is squared and stitched, so the bag stands on its own.
It is the kind of object you leave packed.
Hand-cut, hand-stitched and finished on the bench in Florence.
Exclusive to Australia.

About Cellerini
Cellerini is a leather workshop on the first floor of Via del Sole 9, in central Florence. There is no shopfront, only a small sign at the door; to get in you press the bell and climb the stairs. Once you are inside the atelier, the workbenches are the ones the Cellerinis put there in 1960 - long, well-worn, dressed with the same hand-tools, leather laid out across them as it has always been.
Silvano and Anna Maria Cellerini started the workshop in the late 1950s, in a small rented room near the Mercato Nuovo, doing restoration. The work was good enough that the Florentine families took notice quickly. Within a few years they had the apartment on Via del Sole, where they have been ever since.
Everything that leaves the room is made in it: bags, wallets, belts, smaller leather objects, cut and stitched and finished by hand from a careful selection of Italian leathers. Pieces are made to last.
Cellerini is exclusive to Australia at The Leopard.
