    Authentic and beautiful handcrafted leather bags! After going on a long hunt and visiting over 50…read moreleather shops (so much fake leather!), I'm so glad I walked into the mom and pop shop and found the perfect bag! I love my stonewashed dusty rose hand woven leather bag. It honestly looks just like the fancy $3K Bottega Veneta bags. It's a medium parachute bag, that's super light weight and very durable. It's a good size, I can throw in my wallet, phone, a water bottle, and still have plenty of room for other stuff without any bulk! Roberta's brother is so passionate about designing the bags and helpful. He patiently answered my questions and explained to me to the process of stonewashing and distressed leather. He was really humble and not at all pushy, finally a shop owner that I can trust! I was able to haggle a little bit by 10% and paid about $150 or so. It was a steal! All of the bags are high quality with unique styles and vibrant colors. There are only a handful of shops that carry hand-woven leather bags and colors like dusty rose or mustard yellow (I was so close to getting another bag!). While everyone raves about Benheart, they are seriously missing out! You are paying for the brand and nice show room than really the product. Roberta's also offers a much more authentic experience and better styles for a fraction of the cost! Given that there are over hundreds of leather shops in Florence, the fact that Roberta's comes up with 4.5+ stars on Yelp, Google, and TripAdvisor, is a true testament of their brand and high quality products. It's my go to leather shop in Florence!

    Nice collection of leather bags, leather gloves, silk scarves and ties, all reasonably priced. No…read morefeeling of being ripped off and no sales pressures as in other leather shops. Highly recommended.

    Came here on an evening 30 mins before closing time, the person that attended me seemed annoyed…read morethat we were there as it was close to closing time, wasn't very helpful, and was reluctant to help out. The attitude was very obvious. Left as soon as noticed this behavior...

    Paulo and his family store was an amazing experience. I walked by this store after it had closed…read moreour first day in Florence. Several of the designs in their window caught my eye so I returned first thing the next day. Their shop has 3 unique leather techniques I have not seen at any other store. I love the feel of soft smooth leather, but usually find leather heavy, especially if it has a basket weave pattern since that doubles the weight. BG has 2 patterns that look like a weave- one a geometric square pattern, the other a raised "pinch" pattern, but are actually cleverly sewn from a single piece of super soft, thin leather. Their 3rd weave pattern creates these gorgeous optical illusions of 3d circles/waves. I was blown away by the craftsmanship, thr lightness of the leather, and the gorgeous colors- classy greige and powder blue, rich burgundy, evergreen, and navy, and luxurious gold and bronze. BUT I didn't want to get carried away and blow my budget before checking out the rest of the city. So I left and started looking. Basketweaves were all over Florence, of varying colors and qualities. But nothing like the 3 I saw at BG. I went back this time w my motherinlaw who has much more experience in high end luxury names and products, and she immediately declared the quality of the leather and uniqueness of their patterns a definite buy. Paulo was so helpful, quoting her an amazing price (similar to many prices we had heard from sellers of products at the mercato stalls without the same quality, workmanship,or guarantees. In fact, she decided to custom order her bag for the colors of her choice in the design she wanted. While she was deliberating, I wandered into the back and found- their amazing leather coats! A super classy reversible 3/4 length deer suede/leather jacket w an intricate mandarin collar and cuffs using an alternating basketweave. Gorgeous! flattering! Buttery soft and light as a feather! But then... Paulo showed me their piece de resistance, this gorgeous buttery white/greige 3/4 sleeve cropped jacket w this mod funnel collar- with their special geometric square pattern detailing the cuffs and collar. So gorg!!!! Yet again, I wanted to make sure I wasn't just being a rube from america... And I spend the next day checking out several recommended shops around Santa Croce, high-end stores near the Ponte Vecchio and... I even found a store that had attempted to knock off their pinch-weave and their optical illusion weave- but couldnt nail either look. The leather was too thick and bulky, the stitching on the pinch pattern was easily visible, they couldn't carry off the 2-tone weave so they did single color, etc. And believe it or not, they were asking the SAME price as BG! I also found another store that knocked off their black deerskin coat, but again they just didnt get the leather or the fit right- little details kike the pockets being way too shallow, and tightness at the elbows w movement.... And yes, asking the same price! So today, I ran back to BG ready to use up all my vacation allowance on clearly the best shop in town.... Sadly Paulo has left to attend his daughter's exams, which I thought was incredibly sweet, but his nephew was there to help me place my order. I had hoped to let Paulo know how much I loved the beauty of the design and quality of their family store, and how much I had appreciated his enthusiasm for showing all the products to my motherinlaw and myself even when we weren't ready to commit earlier in our trip. He was so kind and classy, and their products are really so gorgeous and incredibly fairly priced, that I'd easily be convinced to buy maybe one more thing if I wasn't literally leaving town before they open tomorrow! I am incredibly happy w what I ordered and we had been so enthusiastic, we convinced several of the people in our tour to come take a look and make purchases too!

    This is my favorite department store in Firenze that always has great brands and great sales no…read morematter what season or time of the year I visit. If you want to find great brands and prices like this in NYC, you have to be prepared to sort through an unorganized store and it's like finding a needle in a haystack-- but not here. Everything is so organized, each clothing rack is in order according to sizing, even the shoes are organized, there's no clutter and the store is easy to walk through and find what you need. I could say "it's an Italian thing" for why it's so organized and neat since Italians are all about presentation and visuals, but I still have to give this store credit for keeping things organized considering the high amount of tourist traffic that comes through this area. The layout is grand and you can see how to get to each specialty department from mostly anywhere in the store without really needing to ask where departments are. The sales people are chill, they don't hassle you, but are available to help when you need them. If you're in Firenze and prefer to shop quality and designer apparel without paying full price, this is the place to come! After you finish doing your touristy things near the Duomo, come and visit just around the corner!
