Simone Taddei's leather workshop

A century-old tradition

The intent of My Box from Italy is to tell the story of Italy in a tangible way, through the works of craftspeople who hold within them not only the story of an art but also the story of a territory.
 
Today, I would like to tell you about a workshop that embodies one of the most well-known and representative arts in the Florentine context, the Art of Leatherworking.

THE COURAGE TO FOLLOW A DREAM

THE COURAGE TO FOLLOW A DREAM

 What I will tell you today is the story of an artist, a young Italian craftswoman.
I invited Sara for a coffee because I wanted to know her story.
How many people have you met in your life who dared to follow a dream?
I don't know many, but Sara is one of them.
And so, today I also tell you about courage, "coraggio" in Italian, a word derived from Latin, formed by cor, heart, and habeo, to have.
Avere cuore, to have a heart.
One might think that Sara's workshop was born by chance, the randomness of a few events that determined the path of a young artist. Stopping to listen to her instead, I discovered a true story of heart and courage that I would like to share with you.
