Founded in Florence in 1970 by the eccentric and creative Wanny Di Filippo, Il Bisonte began as an artisan workshop rooted in a counter-cultural spirit. The brand is celebrated for its commitment to slow fashion, creating high-quality leather bags and accessories designed to last a lifetime. Its core identity is built on the use of vegetable-tanned cowhide leather, a traditional Tuscan practice that allows the material to develop a unique, rich patina over time. This approach eschews fleeting seasonal trends in favor of timeless, functional designs, with many archival styles remaining in production for decades.
