Italy appeals to start-up leathergoods brand

Italy is the inspiration behind a new leathergoods brand in Chile. The Santiago-based brand, Pallatina, launched this year, saying that its aim is to provide bags “for real life”.

It describes the products in its initial catalogue as having “a minimalist, multi-season design”. Pallatina has said it believes in “luxury that has no need to shout” and in “quiet details that say much more than any logo”.

The company has taken its name from the Palatine Hill in the centre of Rome. In keeping with this, it has said it is committed to making its products from high-end Italian leather. It said it wants to use material that will last and increase in beauty as time goes on.
