    5 Delighted with my purchase
    I wanted to review this product and explain how pleased I am with it. I spent a long time looking for a nice work briefcase in a classic style. This fits the bill perfectly. I love it. The leather is a lovely colour and the finish is great. I only wish I waited for it in the new burgundy.
    5 FANTASTIC BAG
    I have searched for many years for the perfect ladies briefcase. I was looking for something more feminine while also remaining very professional, stylish and functional. I just purchased this bag in the wine color and it is absolutely gorgeous. I finally found the perfect ladies briefcase. Very professional and have already received numerous compliments with my first day of using this bag. I highly recommend this back to all professional women. I just bought the wallet to match as well. Leather is absolutely gorgeous and the color is beautiful. If you are in the market for a professional ladies work bag, this is it. Treat yourself and purchase this bag. Maxwell Scott does not disappoint. We work hard and we are worth it ! Enjoy!!
    5 Just gorgeous!
    If you are a young professional, The Fiorella is a must! The perfect briefcase bag for a professional stylish women!
    5 Beautiful Purchase !
    This bag is the perfect combination of style, quality and practicality. The wine colour is so beautiful and the inside is very spacious. A 15inch laptop fits perfectly along with A4 documents, chargers, notebooks and the leather detail on the inside of the bag is a lovely surprise. Highly recommend!
    5 The best laptop bag!
    The best laptop bag - Elegant, classic, functional, only quality!
    5 Gorgeous and elegant quality
    The classic tan color is a lot darker than it appears on my computer screen. I had to double-check with the company to make sure that it wasn't the "dark chocolate" color by mistake. She wrote back that it was the right one. So just keep that in mind. It looks, smells, and feels wonderful. I haven't really used it yet so time will be the test, but it fits my mac air perfectly. The straps are not too hard and not too soft. Perfect length for me. The bag looks quite professional though I had planned on using it as a semi-casual bag. It also feels a little heavier than my non-leather similar bags, but I read quality leather can feel a little heavy. I am impressed with how well made it looks.

    OUR SIGNATURE LEATHER
    Two decades have passed, and we are still committed to using our unique, unparalleled Vachetta leather that only one tannery possesses the precise formula to produce. Our prestigious leather is certified by the Genuine Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather Consortium, a certificate of quality awarded to less than 1.5% of Italian tanneries. By showcasing their trademark and quality assurance, we honour the heritage of skilled artisans.
    Finest Full-Grain Vachetta Leather
    Often imitated but never matched, our high-quality full-grain Vachetta leather is unrivalled due to three essential components:
    1. HIDES - we source only European hides reared in perfect conditions, ensuring tough and durable leather with a quality finish.
    2. TANNING PROCESS - we use a natural centuries-old technique of vegetable-tanning which is both organic and sustainable.
    3. TANNERY - Our tannery is based in the heart of Tuscany, arguably the best region in the world. It has been awarded countless awards and delivers some of the 1.5% best leather in Italy. These factors combine to yield a premium, durable leather with exceptional visual appeal.
    A Unique Patina
    As time passes, a captivating patina will develop, subtly transforming its colour and aesthetic as it gracefully weathers the elements, a highly desirable characteristic of pure untreated leather, leaving a legacy of its journey. Unwanted marks and surface scratches can be effortlessly removed due to our slow process of drum-dying the leather all the way through, unlike faster methods of hand and surface dyeing. Our deep, earthy tanned leather is of unparalleled quality, allowing it to retain its natural strength, character, and properties without any alterations or corrections. In contrast, coated full-grain leather loses its appeal as it ages in as little as 12 months.
    Sustainably Tanned With Chestnut Trees
    We're committed to using a centuries-old technique that has remained unchanged for thousands of years. The process of vegetable tanning requires considerable time and patience, as our hides immerse themselves in drums for 60 days. We’ve always believed that the reward of sustainable, premium leather is worth the wait. With only 10-12% of the world's leather being vegetable-tanned due to quicker and cheaper methods of tanning becoming more prevalent, we are proud to honour the traditions and legacy of authentic leather craft passing the exceptional benefits onto our customers.
    Guardians of a Rich Legacy
    We honour an authentic approach to tanning leather, using Chestnut extracts to embrace a sustainable and organic method of dyeing, preserving a traditional practice that dates back thousands of years. The deep colour and natural scent of our signature leather are a testament to this ancient technique, enabling wearers to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of nature.
    Crafted To Last a Lifetime
    The combination of these factors forms a dependable yet timeless work of art, which will accompany you for a lifetime. To demonstrate our confidence, we offer an industry-leading 25-year warranty.
