For more than 20 years I have known this small craft store in the historic center of Siena. Here you can buy high-quality hand made leather goods ... as I did again during my last stay in this city in November 2022.
Absolutely recommend!

We recently visited this leather store in Siena and we were very impressed with the design, quality and prices of the leather goods. Paolo Infunti, the owner and master leather craftsman was a pleasure to talk to and get to know. We purchased a ladies purse, a man's wallet, and some small leather purses as gifts. We are very pleased with all of the items and highly recommend this store.

Paolo is very kind and it is obvious he takes pride in his craftsmanship. I was looking for something special and locally made and I found it here!

This was my second visit to Casa della Pelle. My first was in 2016, when the window display (heraldic shields of the contrade of Siena) first caught my eye. On both occasions, I found the owners warm and helpful, and I went away with a lovely handmade handbag. I'll likely be back again on another trip to Siena as I noticed that Paolo also makes some very attractive leather backpacks...

I passed this store every day on my way to the university for my summer classes. I could see the owner working on leather items. When I decided to buy myself a new purse, I stopped in and I was so glad I did! The owner's wife helped me find a beautiful bag, at reasonable price. I liked knowing that I wasn't buying some cheap knock-off or something made in a sweat shop. The owner and his wife were so friendly and kind! I can't reccomend them more highly!

My pre-teen son was very interested in buying a leather wallet while we were in Italy. We told him to wait til Tuscany, and from there I researched and found Casa della Pelle online. I am so glad we followed the reviews to this treasure of a shop! About a 10 minute walk from Piazza del Campo, we found Mr Infunti manning his shop. My son was able to find a beautiful leather wallet in the color and style of his choice. The craftsmanship was truly outstanding. We ended up getting an eye glass case and some key chains as well. I am so glad we found this gem of a store, well worth the visit off beaten path.

I was recently in Siena and had the pleasure of walking into the shop Casa della Pelle. I initially purchased mens leather belts to give as gifts to family members but I kept going back because each time I would see more and more items I liked. In addition to 4 leather belts, I ended up purchasing a leather key chain and a beautiful one-of-a-kind leather briefcase for my husband. If you happen to go to Siena, you must visit this shop! The owners are so kind and patient, even while I was making calls to the U.S. to find out belt sizes (which they converted to Italian sizes). Everything is beautifully made and the craftsmanship is excellent. With each purchase, the owners give you a small gift as a token of their appreciation. In today's world, nobody does that. I highly recommend Casa della Pelle if you are looking for beautifully crafted leather goods and excellent customer service.
