From Florence - the green cigarette case

The cigarette case, like cufflinks, lighter and wrist or pocket watch, has always been an indispensable accessory for men. Often a valuable gift with a personal engraving, the gentleman was all too happy to pull it out of his jacket pocket. The beautiful companion was replaced by dented paper boxes drawn from machines with drastic medical images for medical students. The leather and very flat cigarette cases made of Florentine leather provide a remedy here. These are light, elegant and fit in every jacket pocket.

Craft with tradition: the leather cigarette case

Each leather cigarette case is individually manufactured in the CAF (Cuoio Artistico Fiorentino) workshop near Florence. Traditional craftsmanship, Italian calfskin, wooden shapes, sharp knives as well as vegetable adhesives and paints are used. This creates beautiful, durable individual pieces made of leather - without any seams.

The people behind

Vasco and Fabio Campanni make ours purses and cases by hand in their workshop near Florence. The partly historical tools, the leather and all the ingredients come from the region. The special feature: an apparently seamless processing of the leather goods.

Crafts from Florence

In the 1950s, Vasco Campanni learned the old craft of leatherworking with the Cuoietto Fiorentino, a special knife. Since then, he has passed on his passion for manufacturing the finest leather goods to his son Fabio.
