A bit of history of our leather factory - A.R.Florence
Heir to a strong tradition of leather work, A.R.Florence looks toward the future backed by a typical Florentine artisan inheritance. The firm, founded in 1961, has handed down this art from the first generation when, at the beginning of the century the grandparents of the actual owners had a workshop on the banks of the Arno. Through the years it has created thousands of models, interpreting changing styles, adapted to all eras and pockets. One particular characteristic of the A.R. Florence production is the diversification which results in an enviable variety of articles produced. Today these include over 30 types of cases for cigarettes and glassess, as well as, more than 100 different models of wallets for men and women. The firm's core product are change-purses, that, together with cosmetics bags, offer some 200 different items. Recently, A.R. Florence has begun producing a wide range of very elegant and reasonably priced leather handbags.All created with leather tanned in Italy, primarly from the area around Santa Croce, the traditional center of florentine leatherwork, principly utilizing calf and sheepskin as well as ostrich and lizard leathers. The wide variety of colours we offer across the entire range of articles we produce has for many years been considered our speciality. We make multicolour leather articles, very popular on the international market. Other factors in the firm's success are its flexible production and customer service.
We produce our own brands as well as those of our clients.
We can also adapt our own products, work on exclusives and develop sample collections.
