Scriptura

Naples


Family-run Scriptura is a must for artisanal leather goods made using high-quality Campanian leather. Its range includes handbags, satchels, duffel bags and backpacks, as well as belts, men's and women's gloves, jackets, wallets, tobacco pouches, eyeglass cases and leather-bound notebooks. Styles and colours cover both the classic and the contemporary and, best of all, prices are reasonable given the quality.
