Purple Intrecciato Tote
The Bottega Veneta Purple Intrecciato Tote exemplifies the brand’s legendary leatherwork. Handcrafted in Italy from supple purple leather, this tote showcases Bottega Veneta’s signature intrecciato weave – a technique requiring 8+ hours of meticulous hand-plaiting per bag. The rich aubergine hue (a 2023 limited-edition color) transitions seamlessly from day to evening.
