Hello, I'm so glad to see that this thread is still active! My grandmother was a textile designer and weaver first for Morris Moskowitz and later for Judith Leiber (among others). She worked in leather, satin, lame', felt, and in all sorts of unique color combinations, on a 4-harness loom. Her work was phenomenal. Actually, I have just organized an exhibit of her designs and her life story at a small museum in Italy (Museo della Lana in Stia, Arezzo). If you'd like more information about her work, life, or about the thousands of samples that I saved of her work, please let me know.Thanks!

Thank you for this info, that is indeed very interesting, and we don't hear about the actual people who make the bags often enough :tup:

I hadn't heard of the museum before, thank you for bringing it to my attention too

I have a large python MM clutch, it's an amazing piece :tender:
