Under the Tuscan Sun

Under the Tuscan Sun

To say I am living a feverpitch dream these past few days is an understatement.
It is one hyperventilating Lifetime worthy event after another in 24 hrs.
From a peek at some original Ferragamos (will explain how his autobiography I read when I learned to make shoes influenced me immensely....
....to going to the amazing bespoke shoemaking space of @stefanobemer to be faced with not one, but two talented women bespoke shoemakers who are PoC @betinayang .....
....to a beginning to end process tour of our main tannery figuring out the science and process behind some of the character we love and why the tanneries we use have to work in this gorgeous landscape....
.... to going to the town olive presser for the first press of the most glorious olive oil available only this time of year....
....to a workshop w the wonderful Giorgio Testi who over his decades with leather have found solutions to so many of our challenges....
...and getting to fondle @kiragoodey amazing creations for @irisvanherpen .....
Each hour of the day needs it's own post to share the beauty of it all.
Thank you to @dianebecker and the @consorzioverapelle for making this all happen!
