Italian leather craftsmanship straight from Tuscany

Old Angler is a family run artisan leather factory, founded in 1990 by experienced leather artisan Luciano Lucenti, his daughter Elisabetta and her husband Mario Bartolini.

Our roots date back to 1957 when Luciano Lucenti started production as a leather craftsman in the heart of Florence. After the flood of 1966, which destroyed most of the city’s historic center, Lucenti moved his production to Pontassieve where it remains today. All of our leather items are genuine works of art, handmade from full grain, vegetable tanned leather or Florentine Cuoio by expert craftsman.

Each leather briefcase, travel bag, handbag and accessory is absolutely unique thanks to the careful attention that goes into every aspect of the manufacturing process, from the selection of materials to artisan craftsmanship.

At Old Angler, we continually strive to exceed all quality expectations. In October 1998, we were one of the first Italian leather factories to obtain the Quality System Certificate from the Institute for Quality Certification for the leather industry (Istituto di Certificazione della Qualità or ICEC).

Today, we maintain these elevated quality standards at every step of the production and purchasing process, and take great pride in providing nothing but the best in customer service and assistance to our clients.
