Artisan belt story | yourmadeinitaly

These aren’t case studies, they’re origin stories of objects that didn’t exist until someone asked.

When clients can’t find the right size, function, or feeling anywhere, they come to YourMadeInItaly and we build it from the ground up. Here you’ll follow the journey from first sketch to final handover: defining the need, selecting Italian materials, iterating details with our artisans, and resolving every constraint into a design decision. Each piece is a one-of-one commission, signed, purposeful, and personal.

Explore how ideas become artifacts, and why true luxury begins when it’s made for you, not for the market.

Reviving a 90s Icon: A Custom Leather Belt Inspired by Versace

A young woman asked us to recreate her father’s beloved 90s Versace belt. With over 300 rivets, dual-tone finishes, and a rare buckle revived by a Florentine artisan, this project took five months and several Italian masters. The result proves why small artisan businesses matter: without them, many dreams would remain unfulfilled.
