Atelier
quality and sophistication fused with State of the Art design. Unedited
forms and revolutionary textures modelled by the craft of artisans. GIOVANNI
VALENTINO presents fabrics and leather as they have yet to be seen. The
unique techniques developed by Giovanni for sculpture (Cybersnake®),
folding (Hexfold®) and incision (Hexscore®) are the fruit of invention,
research and innovation combined with the expertise of the Valentino family
tradition, now in its third generation. Time, patience and antique skills
are the requisities necessary to etch and pleat materials without lacerating
them or compromising their natural characteristics. A 19th century press
is the tool needed to achieve the eight-hour feat of delicately transforming
hide into a three dimensional reality.
GIOVANNI VALENTINO uses only natural fibres and the best part, known as
„pieno fiore", of the finest leather. Scrupulously selected for their
unique transparency featuring natural shades and markings as an element
of decoration and proof of purity. All metal accessories are hand-carved
in brass and plated with palladium or gold, in accordance with the brand's
rigorous standards. True to the tradition of artisans, GIOVANNI VALENTINO
guarantees a personalised customer service. All items are produced in
limited quantities or to special order and numbered to ensure their superlative
quality and exclusivity.
