THE ART OF MAKING

AN ITALIAN STORY SINCE 2011

"My professional journey began in the world of tourism, working as a tour leader and travel consultant—an experience that taught me to always look beyond the horizon. Parallel to this, I have always nurtured an innate passion for early 20th-century design and rationalist architecture; that quest for balance, form, and structural purity eventually became the compass for my aesthetic vision. Meeting Stefano Turco, my partner in life and art, was the true catalyst for my creative evolution. Together, in 2011, we founded ESSENTY, transforming a small artisan workshop into a cosmopolitan brand capable of merging art with contemporary design. Every piece we create is a chapter of our journey, designed for those who, like us, choose to live an authentic life."

SIMONA SABBATINI

Art-Designer and Co-founder

"As a 'son of art,' I grew up immersed in a world of creativity, constantly stimulated by my father Mauro’s artistic vision. My life has always been a symphony of design and music—two languages that shape the way I perceive the world. In 2007, I moved to Los Angeles for an experience that proved vital to my professional growth and broadened my perspective on global aesthetics. Yet, my journey truly found its purpose when I met Simona Sabbatini, a gifted fashion stylist who would become my partner in both life and art. Together, we channel our shared passions into ESSENTY, blending a love for design and fine craftsmanship into pieces designed for an authentic life."

The choice of materials, the expert hands of our master craftsmen, marked by years of work and a love for leather, caress the heart of the full-grain leather. It's not just about assembly, but about feeling and understanding the leather, selecting only the finest to ensure that each bag feels unique and will only improve with time.

The project comes to life on the workbench, pencil sketches testify to the origin of the idea. Every line drawn on paper transforms into volume, a fold, a stitching. The drawings are the treasure map that guides the artisan, the bridge between creative intuition and the tangible object you hold in your hands.

IN THE HEART OF TRADITION

In a bright, historic corner, nestled in the Italian countryside, experience meets dedication. Each bag is not the product of an assembly line, but rather the result of a slow and measured process, where every gesture has weight and meaning. It is the authentic expression of Made in Italy that we love to showcase:

The attention to detail, the delicacy with which each piece is crafted, finished, polished, and decorated, is the result of a rigorous process. It is a silent and thorough inspection, where even the smallest imperfection is corrected, because perfection lies in attention to detail.

WHERE TIME STANDS STILL

Free-hand decoration is the pinnacle of customization. With absolute concentration, we brush on the collection's details using natural colors that blend perfectly with the base palettes. These aren't industrial prints, but hand-painted applications that make each piece unique.

The workbench is a microcosm of traditional tools and creativity. The open paint pots, the palette of shades, the other leatherwork tools, and the bags in progress tell a story of continuous and passionate production.

THE MICROCOSM OF THE LAB

Every gesture is measured. The hands that delicately place the bag in its box know that this is the moment your shopping experience begins. It's not just about protecting the product, but about celebrating its owner.

A Message of Care, a handwritten note from the person who created that unique piece, communicates our commitment. We don't just want to sell you a bag; we want to guarantee you a lifelong partner that will maintain its beauty over time. We build a bond that transcends geographical distance.

From one corner of Italy to the world, our bags, born of Italian passion and savoir-faire, are welcomed, sought after, and loved from New York to Tokyo, from Milan to Dubai, and many other countries.

DEDICATION TO DETAILS

Quality you can feel.

We carefully select materials that balance durability, texture, and refined appearance. Every piece is unique and crafted to hold its shape, age beautifully, and feel comfortable in everyday use. Our focus is on:
