from Florence
New Arrivals
Each season, a new chapter. The ViaBuia Collection arrives from the ateliers of Florence — pieces that carry the warmth of Tuscan light, the soul of Italian craft, and the irreverence of art that dares to be worn.

Since 2012
Born on a hidden road in Florence.
Via Buia — the dark lane. A magical, tucked-away road in the heart of Florence where, in 2012, Christine Tortora fell in love with the art of Florentine leather craft and ViaBuia was born. What began as a personal obsession became a belief: that a bag can be art, that art can be carried, and that the things we choose to hold close should be as singular as we are.
Via Buia, Florence · Est. 2012 · Christine Tortora
