A Hand-Dyed Italian Leather Hobo Bag for Everyday Style
Leonia is a handcrafted Italian leather hobo bag designed for women who want useful everyday capacity without the bulk of an oversized handbag. Handmade in Florence from genuine hand-dyed Italian leather, its compact crescent silhouette sits naturally against the body while offering enough space for daily essentials. With both shoulder and crossbody carrying options, Leonia transitions effortlessly between workdays, city errands, travel, weekends, and evening plans.

Florentine Hand-Dyed Leather Craftsmanship
Leonia showcases the distinctive character of traditional Florentine hand-dyed leather. Skilled artisans individually work colour into the leather, creating natural tonal depth and subtle variations across its uninterrupted panels. Rather than having a completely uniform appearance, each bag displays individual character that becomes richer as the leather develops its natural patina over time.
If you appreciate traditional Florentine leatherwork, you may also like the Adelasia Hand-Dyed Italian Leather Top Handle Bag, the Liviana Hand-Dyed Italian Leather Bag, or the Liviana Large Italian Leather Structured Tote Bag.
Soft Crescent Hobo Silhouette
The gently curved crescent shape gives Leonia the relaxed character of a classic hobo bag while maintaining a more compact and refined profile. Its smooth continuous leather body avoids unnecessary seams and decorative excess, allowing the richness and tonal variation of the hand-dyed leather to become the defining visual feature.
The integrated short handle allows the bag to sit comfortably beneath the arm, creating an elegant shoulder silhouette that works naturally with tailoring, knitwear, dresses, denim, and relaxed everyday outfits.
Secure Zip Closure and Organised Interior
A full-length top zip closure helps keep belongings protected during commuting, shopping, and travel. Antiqued brass-tone hardware complements the rich character of the leather, while the tartan plaid lining introduces a distinctive heritage-inspired detail inside the bag.
Measuring 33 × 19 × 8.5 cm, Leonia provides practical room for a long wallet, smartphone, sunglasses, cosmetic pouch, keys, and other everyday essentials. Interior pockets help keep smaller belongings organised and easy to reach.

Shoulder and Crossbody Carry
Leonia offers two practical ways to carry it throughout the day. Use the integrated leather handle for a refined under-arm shoulder look, or attach the adjustable 120 cm leather strap to transform it into a comfortable crossbody bag when hands-free movement is preferred.
This convertible design makes Leonia particularly versatile for commuting, sightseeing, shopping, travel, and days that move between casual and more polished settings.

Use only care products suitable for genuine hand-finished leather.

Every Leonia bag is handcrafted in Florence by skilled Italian artisans using genuine leather and traditional hand-finishing techniques. Its natural tonal depth, carefully constructed crescent silhouette, and considered finishing details reflect the enduring heritage of Florentine leather craftsmanship.
