The first
monograph on the luxury house Bottega Veneta, renowned for its superb
craftsmanship and understated, no-logo elegance. Bottega Veneta's
illustrious history reaches back to a time when the brand was known
primarily for its soft, handcrafted leather handbags. Today, the house
is renowned not only for its coveted leather goods but also for a
remarkable range of luxury products. Now, as then, the brand stands for
the discreet sophistication and refined individuality captured in its
famous line, "When your own initials are enough." This beautifully
designed and slipcased monograph, the first book to explore the world
of Bottega Veneta, is the rich result of a collaborative effort between
creative director Tomas Maier, designer Sam Shahid, and many of today's
leading lights of fashion journalism. With luxury craftsmanship at its
core, Bottega Veneta is an illustrative tour de force through the
materials, artisanship, and extraordinary products that have made the
Italian label one of the most eminent luxury goods houses. Tomas Maier's
understated design sensibility, a mixture of restraint and passion, has
become the hallmark of the Bottega Veneta brand. This is the ultimate
volume for the true connoisseur of luxury handcraftsmanship.
