Moretta | Crisantemi Black | Silver Handles

Mariano Fortuny was a renowned fashion designer whose couture set a new standard for elegance. Our handbags are based on Fortuny’s style, and use the same techniques as our scarf and cushion collections. They stand out for their luxurious finish and the precious decorative detail. The Moretta was a Venetian mask popular in the 16th and 17th centuries. Women wore it during Carnival to create an aura of allure and mystery – not only did it cover half the face, but it was held in place by biting down on a small button so the woman couldn’t speak while wearing it. This Moretta is a hand printed velvet bag with metal.
