Blanc is now featuring a new line of exclusive, limited edition handbags from Italy. The design is illa di Cristina Marzola. illa is based near Venice and each collection is meticulously crafted by hand in neighboring Vicenza, a province renowned for producing handbags of superior quality and prestige.

The first bags to arrive are leather clutches with detachable brass chains and laser imprints. The laser impressions, designed by Manuel Pablo Pace, are the result of a process perfected by one of illa's master artisans who has been working for over thirty years with some of the most distinguished Italian gold firms in the laser processing of metals, as well as with new laser technologies for leather.

Stay tuned as more collections from illa will be arriving at Blanc late summer.
