The Object and Its Moment
A Case for Papers

Navy leather, divided for papers.

The Fashion Landscape
A Leather Goods House

Guccio Gucci founded his business in Florence in 1921, making leather goods and luggage after working at the Savoy Hotel in London. Leather remained at the core of the house's production through the following decades.

The Wider Culture
Family Ownership

In the 1980s Gucci was still owned by the founding family. Maurizio Gucci transferred his shares to Investcorp in 1993, ending the family's involvement.

Reading the Object
Compartments and Zips

The double front sleeve keeps smaller items apart from the main compartment, and the silver-tone pulls make the zips easy to grip. Wear is light and the zips work fully.

Compartments arranged for order.
