Many of the bags come with detachable shoulder straps. Tano bags are constructed of leather with fabric linings. One of the leathers is called Italian crunch and has a crinkle look and feel. Many of the leathers have a shiny finish. Many of the Tano leathers are distressed and have characteristics of a natural leather hide.

Tano uses a variety of colors and dyes in their manufacturing process. Due to the design process not all bags look exactly the same. Because leather is unique and the manufacturing process involves the use of different leathers and hides each Tano bag takes on individual characteristics of its own. There may be variations due to the natural materials and dyes used to make the handbags. Leather is a natural material whose durability texture and beauty make it one of the most popular materials on the market. Visible natural markings are part of genuine leather products and are subtle assurance distinguishing real leather from a synthetic imitation material. The beauty of each leather item is enhanced by varying grain patterns and the subtleties of color and texture created by dyes and finishes.

Many of the leather hides are hand dyed creating an uneven mottled look to the finish. This is all done on purpose to make a Tano bag with a rugged urban style. With time and use leather products will mature and darken giving them a rich patina. Irregularities you find in a genuine leather product make the product unique and take on characteristics of a quality manufacturing processes.

Soon even you will be prepared to vow loyalty in sickness and in health.

Or maybe even ’til death do you part.

Myth Buster Designer Handbags in the News

Tano Bags Online

It was a fleeting thought, but nonetheless, we were thinking about renting a purse the other day. Poof! The thought was gone.

We did some Google browsing and stumbled across all the news media quotes listed below. So, we decided to consult some handbag experts to bust some of the myths floating around. We also did our own research and came up with some surprising data. Bottom line, it's not cheaper to rent a designer handbag. In the long term, you are better off owning the purse of your dreams. The media has taken hold as usual, it is all hype and drama. The proof is in the numbers. Rental fees can be as high as $300 per month or more for a famous high-end designer handbag (12 x $300 = $3600).

No wonder all the advertising is being pushed like none other. People are being blind-sighted by one of the worst investments a woman can make with her hard earned cash! Too bad there aren't laws to protect financial rape. Women, wise up. If you can't afford to buy yourself a new purse a few times a year, you certainly shouldn't be worried about impressing people with designer fashion accessories.

Here are a list of quotes made by prominent publications. They are myths, and we just busted them!

MYTH #1 -
“Because hot handbags have such a short shelf life, why not rent one instead of buying? That’s the logic behind…” — The Washington Times

Not true. A classic designer handbags does NOT have a short shelf life. Let's take the Fendi Baguette as an example. It started the entire "it" bag movement about twelve years ago and it's still going strong. As a matter of fact, Fendi introduced a "rebirth" of the detailed ornate baguette this past season. It's still alive and doing well. And, for all you Fendi baguette lovers out there, those designer handbags you purchased over the years are now becoming collector's items are reselling for a ton of cash. So, don't cash in yet. Hang onto, or still hang it over your shoulder and look fabulously current carrying a Fendit baguette. The Fendi Baguette is available in a small version about 9 x 6 inches in size or the larger MaMa Baguette style. Whichever, you picked a winner.

Not only has the Fendi Baguette survived over a decade of shelf life, it has been copied by all the major handbag brands. The word "baguette" is not synonomous to any small shoulder bag that fits neatly tucked under the arm when carried over the shoulder. Coach has one, so does Prada, Gucci and all the big handbag designers.

MYTH #2 -
“Fashion handbags are now a $5 billion industry, and a growing number of women are renting bags instead of buying them. For the price of a single designer bag, women can rent a year’s worth.” — NPR

Not true. Wait. Maybe true if you are willing to settle for less than the high end designer handbag style. You can rent at a low rate, but the designer bag is a low-rate, too. You get what you pay for in rentals and in retail.

A year's worth of high-end designer rentals like Chanel would cost much more than the price you'd pay for owning a classic Chanel handbag of your own. Chanel maintains its value, too. So, look at a Chanel purchase as an investment. The classic black quilted lamb leather chain shoulder bag rents for more than $300 per month. HUH! You can purchase one for about $1500. That's 5 months of rental fees, not including insurance and other hidden fees for renting Chanel.

Classic Chanel bags last a lifetime and are passed down through generations. Rentals are like booze, here today and gone tomorrow.

MYTH #3 -
“Do you want to look like Uma Thurman, the new face for Louis Vuitton, but just can’t afford those accessories? No problem. Now the middle class is scrambling for brand-name luxuries, borrowing has become the next-best way to look rich.” — Time

Think Keith Richards. Can't resist the Time Magazine quote we stumbled upon online. The new face of Louis Vuitton is Keith Richards! LOL. Now, re-read the quote above. Replace Uma Thurman with the name Keith Richards. Think Twice about what you wish for!


MYTH #4v-
“Ten years ago in the US the trend was towards cappuccinos and lattes – the sort of small luxury indulgence that was affordable to everyone. It’s the same idea with handbags you can rent.” — The Times

What? handbags have been around since the beginning of time. Check out Wikipedia. There's some great information online about the history of the handbag. Man-bags transformed into women's purses, and they've continually evolved throughout the ages. As a matter of fact, the best thing about a fabulous handbag is it can be carried to make your raggiest pair of jeans, a pair of flip-flops and cotton T-shirt look like Vogue. All you need is a fabulous bag and your entire ensemble is pulled together to make a fashion statement.

Yet, renting a designer purse is not a good comparison to the cost of a cup of coffee, even if it's $5 from Starbucks. Let's see, McDonald's just introduced the "designer" flavored ice coffee drink on tap for $1.89. Hmmmm....am I dreaming? The Times is a bit off in their price comparisons here. To rent a high-end designer handbag you'll be putting out more than $300 per month. Let's see. Big decision here. Should I rent a purse or make my car payment?


MYTH #5 -
“In the age of new luxury where some people would forgo a month’s rent for a the new Chloe Paddington bag, retail analysts say there is a burgeoning group of middle-class Americans who are indulging a yen for high-end fashion. Companies ...are catering to fashionistas who lack the disposable income to satisfy their cravings for Coach satchels and Chanel clutches, but for whom carrying a cheaper knockoff is blasphemy.” — The Boston Globe

Sorry, Boston Globe, the Coach handbag is so very moderately priced that renting one is not a very good investment of a person's money at all. To encourage people to rent Coach is not a good financial strategy. Buy Coach. Actually, renting Chanel is not a good investment either. The rental fees for Chanel begin at about $270, and that's not including membership fees, insurance fees, and other hidden fees none of the news media discloses in all the free advertising they do to promote designer rental companies.

Rent a luxury car? Rent a luxury airplane? Rent a luxury suite? These make financial sense for the occassion at hand. Renting a purse? Well, think twice about your cost and pay-off. Do your homework first before jumping into something you can't get out of later.

Nobody should ever carry a fake counterfeit handbag. However, designers like Melie Bianco and Murval make fabulous similar looking eco friendly handbags for a fraction of what you'd pay for a good counterfeit. And, if we are working toward a youthful "new earth" movement, then doesn't the inauthenticity of "renting" a purse to look good actually make a person look bad? Renting a designer handbag in order to "look good" is like living a lie. Authenticity rocks!

MYTH #6 -
“Cash-strapped fashionistas rejoice. The authentic $850 Gucci pink clutch you’ve been eyeing … can be yours for $72.90.” — National Post

You'll have to show us this to prove it. All the handbag rental stores we scoured had much higher prices than $73. Maybe $73 per day, with a minimum rental membership fee, plus other fees like shipping, insurance and etc., etc. Do you really think paying $73 to carry a Gucci bag for one day is going to transform your life? your appearance? your stature? Hello?

MYTH #7 -
“You can pretty much look like a million bucks, without breaking the bank.” — KCNC-TV CBS, Denver

I wonder what Susie Ormand would say about that! Let's ask her. Susie, if you are reading this post, please send us an email with your comments. Is renting a designer handbag a good use of a person's budget? Email KarrBernadette at hotmail.com. Thanks Susie!

Now, refer to the comments made about Myth #4 and living your life authentically. Thank you.

MYTH #8 -
“If you’re a handbag junkie, there is hope online – a service that rents out designer handbags and prevents you from breaking the bank.” — CBS Market Watch Weekend

See Myth #6.


MYTH #9 -
loan[s] out ‘it’ bags that cost more than your rent – and that are guaranteed to be out of style in three months – plus a host of classic styles from designers such as Louis Vuitton, Coach, and Donney & Bourke.” — Time Out New York

See Myths #1, #6 and #7.


MYTH #10 -
“Wake up and smell the Chloe. The Chloe Paddington bag, that is…it’s now possible for you (or that hard-to-please fashionista on your holiday gift list) to carry the $500 or $2000 bag of your dreams – and to swap it out for a brand spanking new model every month – for a fraction of what it would cost to buy all the latest must-have bags outright.” — FWD

Swapping bags out can only be achieved if the bag is available! But your monthly dues is automatically charged to your credit card. Just like that gym membership. It's not any good to your budget unless your are using it and getting the results you want.

But, if you save your money and make a personal invnestment in a designer handbag, it's yours for a lifetime. When the bag is yours all it takes is a walk to your closet when you are in the mood to change handbags . And, you never have to worry about who carried the bag before you. Can you imagine using a purse someone you don't know used for possibly carrying their puppy?

MYTH #11 -
‘I love it. I would never – and could never – afford to buy one of the bags, but I can rent one for three weeks for about $50.’ — SLTtoday.com

Not true. A three week designer handbag rental is about $210 at one of the lowest membership fee schedules for a really nice bag. Anything less than that, you may as well not even consider.

MYTH #12 -
“It says that you’ve arrived. That you’re part of an exclusive club. That you are a fashion insider.. And an affluent one. Your purse packs a punch.” — The Denver Post

Do you see the humor in this quote? Who are you trying to fool? The people around you know whether you can afford the purse you are carrying. What do you think people would really be saying if they see you carrying a designer handbag they know you can't afford to own?

MYTH #13 -
"…thousands of women have signed up to lease the latest luxury brand bags on market, many of them coming back for more week after week, month after month, or every time a new event or outfit calls for the perfect handbag.” — Baltimore Sun

Pure media hype. There's no proof in the quote by the Baltimore Sun. As a matter of fact, there's so much hype in the media it makes the regular person ask, "What's all this hype about?" Think about it. Paying rent sucks. We do it for a place to live or a car to drive. When it comes to a purse, let's get real. Now, we have to worry about making enough money to pay our purse fees?

MYTH #14 -
“A key feature of the business is that women can rent several different handbags over a year for the same price or less than it would take to buy a new purse.” — Pioneer Press

Agreed, a person can rent several purses over the course of one year. But, the cost would be much higher than making an investment in the purchase of one classic high end designer handbag. See Myth #2.

MYTH #15 -
“Business is booming…and retail experts say consumers don’t attach a stigma anymore to leasing large sticker items like cars, even furniture, so it makes sense that pricey purses would fall in line.” —WXYZ-TV, Detroit

Once again comparing a handbag to a $60K Lexus is not a good comparison. Same holds true for furniture. Pricey purses carry very high rental fees.

MYTH #16 -
“Fashion conscientious women will pay hundreds, even thousands of dollars for handbags , everything from Gucci to Kate Spade, but now there is a local company that offers the exact, and we mean the exact, purses for as little as $20….” — KSTP-TV, Minneapolis

Not true, period.

MYTH #17 -
“It can cost a pretty penny…to carry a stylish handbag, and if you want a new bag each season, you’re talking some big bucks, but we’ve found away around it.” — Action News – WXYZ-TV, Detroit

For the rental price you pay, you can easily purchase a gorgeous new handbag every season.

Sienna Miller syndrome: Why a woman owns 111 handbags in her lifetime

Tano Handbags affordable adorable to collect

from The Daily Mail

For most women the handbag is more of a lifestyle necessity than a fashion accessory. And it seems having only one - or even two, three or four - just won't do. Indeed, researchers have found that the average 30-year-old owns 21 handbags and buys a new one every three months. That adds up to 111 over the course of a lifetime - with a total outlay of more than £8,000.

Five per cent of those surveyed even admitted to owning more than 100 at present. The average spend on each handbag is £76, but, of course, prices go far higher than that. Do women really need 111 handbags? Join the debate... Celebrities such as Sienna Miller and Lindsay Lohan sporting glitzy arm accessories have helped to popularise expensive designer brands, say the researchers, who asked 1,500 shoppers about their handbags.

It emerged that women typically use three on a regular basis, changing to suit the occasion, outfit or even their mood. The remaining bags are stored in an easily reachable place "just in case". Many handbags are passed down through generations, the survey found, with one in eight women owning one more than 50 years old. One in three of those questioned had guilty consciences about their excessive handbag-buying habits. When asked what was the most they had ever spent on one, the aver-for women in their 20s was £185, while for 30-somethings it was a purse-popping £380, with designer labels Mulberry and Chloe being most popular.

When asked why women hoard so many handbags, nearly seven in ten said it's because "you never know what they'll go with". One in five said they are so fond of their handbags that sentimental value stops them throwing old ones away. Angela Poplett is a personal shopper at Lakeside shopping centre in Essex, which carried out the survey. She said: "Handbags can change your whole look and transform a plain outfit into one that's set to impress.

"Often women buy a new handbag to suit a certain outfit and don't want to throw it away after just one use so keep hold of it to use again one day. "It's clear from the results of this research that British women have some sort of handbag obsession. "Maggie Thatcher started the trend with her love for handbags and today's celebrities such as Sienna Miller, Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie have followed in her footsteps - so much so that I like to call this handbag obsession 'Sienna Miller Syndrome'."

The researchers also asked about the contents of handbags. As well as the usual items such as mobile phones, makeup and house keys, they were found to contain plasters, paracetamol, vitamins and even mini first-aid kits. Other items included dental floss, a spare stocking and insect repellent. As much as women love their handbags, it seems that many just can't keep hold of them with 53 per cent of those questioned admitting to losing their prized bag one or more times.

Tano Handbags Are A Sensual Experience

by herfavoritehandbags

The manufacturer of Tano handbags believes that buying a Tano handbag is a sensual experience. They argue that you need to handle the bag, run the zippers, squeeze the leather and fit your cell phone into the tiny pockets before you purchase the handbag. They firmly believe that you have to fall in love with this handbag before you buy it.

This idea of sensual handbags is exactly why you cannot find Tano handbags for sale in any department store. The Tano label owners will only sell to local boutique retailers and only very limited on-line websites. Their marketing objective is to make Tano handbags exclusive by not selling to a wide marketplace and to give their client a personalized touch. Their theory is a touchy feely product.

This is a very interesting concept because women like a wide choice when selecting handbags. Women are comparison shoppers and like to have choice, especially when selecting handbags. Tano is banking on their repeat business, word of mouth marketing and an individualized experience for first time buyers.

The Bags
Tano handbags are really very reasonably priced. Where most designer handbags range in price from $250.00 to $1500.00, these handbags average in price from $150.00 to $250.00. Tano handbags are unique in their design, upscale and attractive to a wide range of women. They are of high quality leather and their wide assortments of color are developed specifically for Tano handbags. The uniqueness of the bag is its handcrafted attention to every detail. The leathers are fine soft leather and each handbag is completely lined, has a sunglass pocket, cell phone pocket and a zippered pocket and can be converted into a shoulder bag. Their sling messenger bags are the most popular in the line. Each Tano handbag has a specific title such as, The Romantic Tote, Gingersnap Handbag, The Tano Sexbomb Crunch Bag, The Bauhaus Black Bag, Tano Depeche Bag, The Suzy Hotrod, Tano Boogie Bucket Bag, Tano Misunderstood Bag and The Tano Old School Woven Bag just to name a few.

The titles give them another mystery and individual style. The Tano handbag line is very competitive with the major designer labels, such as Dior, Chanel and Louis Vuitton. They respond for a need for designer look without the high end price. For the handbag lover who appreciates quality, style and a good price point, these bags are well worth the price. They will last for years are trendy and absolutely beautiful. If you want a designer look and can’t pay the high price, definitely try a Tano handbag.

We hope you never do. But, because all of our bags are crafted by the human hand an occasional issue may arise. We’re all human. In that case bring your bag back to the retail store where you purchased it and we’ll take it from there. Each retailer has a different store policy. We work with the retailer to make sure you’re happy and that you stay a loyal Tano bag fan.

Beautiful Authentic Designer Handbags

TANO leather brief case handbag designer purse. Electroplate Style 3755.

Published by vivbag

Imagine buying your dream bag, the purse you have wanted for so long, now you want to show off this beauty to your friends. They are all excited and a bit jealous, however someone notes that your handbag is not the real deal. Now all your friends are walking around with authentic designer handbags and you are stuck with a cheap replica and worst of all you paid a lot of money for it. These days you have to be careful and make sure you get the accessories you paid for.

The easiest and safest would be to buy the handbag from an authorized dealer. If these places would not sell authentic designer handbags a lot of people would be complaining and problems would follow, you have to remember these companies have to maintain their reputation and good ethics.

You can always visit the retail outlets, but lets be honest it is easier and much more convenient to visit a website which carries a large number of designer goods, than the exhausting ordeal of you running through all these stores, hunting down the perfect bag that is in fashion. The same rule applies to the websites; just make sure they have a good reputation.

There are a lot of woman who visit eBay to find a good deal on that special authentic designer handbag. The problem is that you cannot decide authenticity from a picture and why would someone sell a designers handbag for less than retail price, wouldn’t they be making a loss?

If you are new to shopping for designer handbags rather stay away from eBay, because this is where a lot of uninformed women get shammed. There are some good and honest deals; however determining authenticity is difficult, because some of the replicas are very similar to the authentic bags, sometimes even for the more informed ladies.

In general you should inspect the handbag and have a look inside and outside for any flaws, like uneven stitching, a residue of glue, irregular spacing of the designer logo, if it is leather smell the bag and if you sense a chemical smell its fake, authentication cards are also replicated so this offers no proof.

At the end it would be best avoiding situations where you are not hundred percent sure and only buy from reputable places. It is wonderful having real authentic designer handbags which are in fashion, thus take your time and make an informed decision, because you want what you pay for.

Hobo Purses - Fashion is Now Comfortable!

Tano Handbag Miss Print Hobo Bag in Burnt Orange

By Tanya Turner

Isn’t it great, when what is currently in fashion is also comfortable and practical? Totes and hobo purses are this year’s favorites. Find out how to select the best one for you.

A tote is an open-top bag that has straps or handles; you can wear it over your shoulder or carry in your hand. A hobo bag is a crescent-shaped bag that hangs from your shoulder. Both are large, so you can fit a lot of stuff in them.

You can get totes and hobo bags in just about any color. Bright-colored handbags are hot this year, but bear in mind that, if you have a large, brightly colored bag, it will attract attention. What I mean is that you don’t want your bag to overpower your outfit or face. However, if you wear a plain outfit in a classic color, like black, grey or white, you can brighten it up with a green or orange purse.

The most popular materials are luxurious leather, leatherette, canvas, linen, tapestry and straw. Combinations of leather and fabric also look very stylish, but are more affordable than leather.

Hobo bags and totes also come with beautiful prints on them; totes that feature celebrities are particularly popular, just now. Animal lovers can get totes that have adorable pictures of pups or kittens on them. You can even order a custom made tote with a photo of your own pet - all you need is to provide a photo of reasonable quality.

Most of us think of a tote as a casual bag for shopping, but you can also get elegant, stylish varieties. If it is leather, suede, or a leather-fabric combination, a tote can be a good companion for a work outfit.

Most hobo bags are not expensive. If you do a little bit of comparison shopping online, you will find fabric and leather-like bags for under 50 dollars, and quality leather for under a hundred. That is, of course, for non-designer bags - but they are of good quality, all the same. If you are after Gucci, Fendi or Prada totes and hobo purses, though, expect to pay a few hundred dollars.

Classy Clutch Bags - Pack It, Grab It & Go

TANO designer handbag 3698 sealed with a kiss metallic leather clutch bag designer purse bronze.

The Tano Clutch bag above is available in Gold, Silver or Pewter metallic distressed leather. It is ideal to carry alone or use inside a larger bag!

By Sheila Nelson

Ladies, although you may love carrying a large handbag everyday, you will also love carrying a handy clutch bag. Clutch bags are classy and easy handbags but not always easy for women to transition into because there is a limit to how much you can fit into it. However, you may like the fact that it makes you down size on the amount of stuff you carry in your purse. Clutch bags force you to carry only what you really need when you go out.

If you cannot fit your wallet into the clutch, you can pull out your ID and credit cards and put them in a secret compartment. The same thing goes with your makeup bag. If you cannot fit the whole makeup bag, you certainly need your lip liner and lipstick so that goes into your clutch. You also need to make sure you have a comb for just in case your hair blows out of place, you can touch it up. You also need your cell phone. Last but not least are your keys. If you cannot fit your cell phone and your keys into the clutch, then the clutch may not work for you. Choose a larger clutch that will give you more space for the things you need to carry. If everything fits, you are good to go. If you have any extra room left in your clutch, you can always add more items such as a compact or a small mirror, or whatever else small you might want to carry with you. You can certainly squeeze a pack of gum or mints in there.

Now that you have carefully packed but not over stuffed your clutch bag, you are ready to go out to lunch, dinner, or a party. The reason I call the clutch bag an easy handbag is because you will never have a problem finding a place to put your clutch bag when you are at a restaurant or at a party. You can place your clutch bag right on the dinner table or in your lap without a problem. When you carry a big handbag to a restaurant, you sometimes need another seat just for your handbag which is not always possible. When you carry a clutch to a night club, you can dance with it under your arm or use the wrist band and let it hang from your wrist. It does not look as bad as having a big large shoulder bag while dancing on the dance floor.

Clutch bags look best with a pair of high heel shoes or at least a pair of pointed toes with a little heel. Clutch bags are classy little bags that should accent your wardrobe and make you feel like a lady when you carry it. Once you start carrying a clutch bag, you will love how you can grab it and go.

So You Love Handbags?

Tano handbags have it all.....Style, Size, Comfort and Perfect Prices!

From BagFancy

A few things to consider before shopping . So you really like handbags. Okay, maybe you love them. That much is clear. But now what? Picking a handbag isn't rocket science, but there are some things to think about when shopping. Some are questions of what you want in a bag, while other considerations are much more practical. Thinking through these can make a difference between being happy with your purchase or leaving your new bag sitting in your closet collecting dust.

Style
You're browsing, and you spot a bag that you're absolutely in love with. Sitting on the rack (or calling to you from your computer screen), it's the cutest thing you've ever seen! But unless you're going to hang it on the wall of your apartment for your guests to admire, you'll want to ask yourself this question: What is this bag going to look like on me? Remember that a bag is only one piece of the puzzle - it should ideally match an outfit or your wardrobe (not just color, but also style and attitude). So before buying, mentally cruise your closet and try to think of what you would wear while carrying that bag. Image is everything!!! When considering handbags/outfits, look at the image you are trying to project. Whether you're going for cute, sexy, cool, chic, conservative, etc. think of how the bag will help you pull off the image. Remember, everyone is unique and some styles don't work for everyone. Also, not all styles work for every occasion. Generally you will shop with specific kinds of activities or events in mind - and of course a formal night out is not going to be the same as a day of running errands. You might eventually want to develop a rotating repertoire of different styles for different occasions. Finally, consider your body shape and size. Handbags come in many different shapes and colors along with style, so make sure to pick one that is flattering for you. Take a look at a guide to matching body and handbag shape before picking (see Links at bottom of article).

Carrying Capacity
All right, so you've found a handbag that looks great on you. But it is a bag, after all, and you just might also want to put stuff in it. How much will you be able to fit in your potential bag? Also, what are you going to put in it? Along with the overall size of the bag, give some thought to things like compartments and accessibility.

Comfort
Another question: how easy will it be to carry? How big is the bag, and what kind of handle does it have? Depending on where you're going and whether you have a place to put your bag, you might end up holding it for a while. You're going to look great with your new handbag. You might as well be comfortable too!

Price
From the infrequent buyer to the shopaholic, we all eventually ask ourselves: How much should I spend? What is this bag worth to me? "Worth" is not just a matter of a dollar value, but also of what it does for you when you have it. Will you be happy that you spent the money and bought it? Is it worth giving up lunch for a week to own that cute bag? Is it worth giving up the extra week's lunch for the matching shoes you now need? Whether you spend thousands of dollars on a Hermes Kelly Bag or $8 on a tote bag from Target, if it was worth it to you, then as Bob Barker says… the price is right. In the end… Shopping for a bag should be fun. That's what it's all about, isn't it? But if you take a little extra time to consider whether the style, carry capacity, comfort level, and price all suit you - you can end up being that much happier with your choice. And hey… Informed shopping can be that much more enjoyable anyway!

Big is “in” this season

We don't think Big Tano Bags are ugly.
As a matter of fact, Big is NOT Ugly! It's Great Big Gorgeous!

by Fibre2fashion

BIG is ugly, big is bulky but this season big is “IN”. No more clutters in the small handbag and carrying of additional bag, one to store your entire make up muddle and other to show off that “in style”. This season we can roam around with a single “king” accessory and have best of both the world’s style and convenience. The latest trend in purse fashion is huge, chunky, and travel size handbags and purses; it would be dense not to have them included in your accessory wardrobe.

These bags pivotal feature apart from the bulk size is their added extras. These huge surprises come decorated with gems, metal accessories and embroidery giving a look of 1930’s. Braiding, grommets, colored leather and pleating are all part of the course on these bags, in which excess is premium. Golden chain straps giving metallic confidence are one more great detail added to them. These bags are available in variety of colors and can be the key accessory of your dressing style. The generous size of the bag with the style check makes it perfect for day-to-night transition. The “it” bag has become the decisive accessory for young twenty something girls partying every night on. Another attraction to using the big bag is the skinnier illusion it creates of the carrier adding much need excitement to any sort of unexciting outfit. These bags specially look good with huge glares adding more dramatic overall effect.

To get inspiration and do a style test lets check out how celebrities welcome the big bag trend this season. Designer and trendy handbags are as good as precious Jewellery items and ultimate status symbol; it helps the fashion bigestas to show off their credentials with the trend, luxurious lifestyle and their earning status. From classics such as the Hermès Birkin and Fendi Spy, to Mulberry's and channel, celebrities have it all. Paris Hilton was spotted with white YSL Muses while Lindsay Lohan is all praise for her Channel handbag in gold making a classic statement. The channel handbags are value for money and never out of style.

The pop Diva Madonna has laid her hands on beautiful chocolate Prada handbag. Nicole Ritchie adores her love for Balenciaga Lariat bag by buying it in almost every color available; green, blue, pink, black and white. This can be termed as being loyal to your style. Kate Moss is a dedicated fashion follower and owns almost every style bag but this season she is being spotted being dedicated to her Mulberry’s Bayswater and is frequently seen with her black version. Louise Redknapp was recently spotted with Stella McCartney's Ladybird - the latest handbag in Stella's famously ethical range. Never one to miss a trend, the supermodel has been spotted with the latest It bag from Mulberry - the Emmy – making it the next hit this season.

These handbags range anywhere from $500 and there is no upper limit to the price tag of this style accessory. It differs from one brand to another. So do not forget to be “in” this season by accommodating the “it” bag in your style check.

Designer Handbags: Most Wanted

Tano handbag "all that glitters" designer purse!

from 10e-design

Flash a photo of any pretty handbag and women don’t fail to drool over it, just as they do over clothing, shoes and jewelry. Needless to say, handbags, totes and purses have become such an everyday necessity, that women don’t leave without it for any event at all!

All handbags, purses and totes have their way of suiting women’s varied preferences. What spells the difference, though, is that they might become decidedly desirable or even become utter necessities to possess if they come in designer labels.

A designer handbag is a luxury to own. To the fashionable woman, it can mean a dream come true. This is why you find men giving these designer items to their beloved ladies.

Despite the undeniable higher cost which sours most budget-conscious women, what makes designer handbags still the most wanted?

A reason in the experts’ list is that most original designers do not replicate their own labels’ designs. While you fall in love with the exclusivity in style, it is a plus to know that designer handbags are made with such thoughtfulness and uniqueness. This is because designer and bags are hinged upon their makers’ personal name or brand. In any product, in fact, designers understand their customers’ needs. Users, especially women, want something new, fresh or surprising and something that, if possible, only they alone own in the world.

Probably the biggest edge of designer handbags is that it gives what it shows and promises. It doesn’t disappoint its user quality-wise. Designer handbags guarantee and deliver “zero errors” in actuality. Designers pour out their effort in making the handbags as inimitable as possible; hence, chances are, designers will not risk the quality of their craft in order to save on money.

This is why designer labels are always expensive. You are assured that quality is never compromised. Because of this, valid complaints on designer handbags are promptly attended to by retailers in most cases.

Most fanatics don’t doubt that designer handbags are without question way more attractive when compared with regular ones you find. With the considerable amount of money you have paid for it, generous options are in exchange. For example, the metals used to accessorize and the stitching are all exceptional, guaranteeing that it will neither rust nor fade. Moreover, unique designs adorn their metal fittings and glamorous embroideries cover the handbags all over for which you take pride in owning.

Another significant characteristic of designer handbags is that when you use one for certain events or occasions, you can reuse it for the next several years. That means you won’t have to buy another one of that type for a longer time. Even so, the supreme handiwork and quality will assure that the handbag will not become paler, grow fainter in appearance or break in the passage of time.

So, the next time you shop and set your eyes upon costly Prada, Gucci or Versace handbags, you know there’s more to its name and price. Designer handbags do not only carry your personal belongings, but do so with assertion, assurance and affection.

The Good Life

by Oh My That's Awesome

So the other night I was on a crowded subway--every seat taken and the aisle packed with people in their winter coats, clutching handbags and leftovers from their Saturday evening dinners. I was lucky enough to snag a seat, but had to deal with someone's crotch resting on my knee and another person's elbow shoved in my neck. Through it all there was a flash of something beautiful. Hanging precariously from a dainty shoulder of a fellow passenger was the one thing I could safely rest my weary eyes upon without risking the ultimate faux pas of catching someone's gaze. I kept my eye on this beautiful handbag for 7 stops and just as its owner stepped off the subway, I caught a glint of a tag and read the word, "Tano." Tano, I whispered to myself in the quiet of the Brooklyn night as I made my way to a friend's party, the word holding the promise of a life worth living.

Sadly, I googled Tano bags the next morning and discovered that they're roughly $200 a pop. But then I remembered two other words that sound like heaven: Tax Refund. _____________________________

Current Handbag Affairs: Limiting designer handbag sales & heavy purse concerns

Photo. Tano Handbags are eFashionHouse.com's best selling designer handbag. Click here to read more.

by Anna Miller

January 2008 Designer handbag woes of the month. Warnings are on Television, online and on the news. Everywhere you surf or shop, you can read about or hear about two current issues concerning a woman's handbag:

1. Health issues concerning women who carry a heavy handbag.

2. Limiting designer handags sales imposed by the department stores.

Do you think it's a coincidence? First, we hear about how unhealthy handbags are becoming, and then we are told we can't buy as many as we want. It is all quite humorous.

FIRST issue - Health Concerns and A Heavy Handbag.

The concern of health related issues around carrying a heavy handbag has been on T.V. talk shows, the news and online. When was the last time anyone wrote a story or news flash about the weight a Pharmaceutical Salesperson lugs around on his/her Doctor office visits? These folks use bags on wheels the load is so heavy! And, they do it everyday from the trunk of a car or van, up flights of stairs, on elevators, down long hallways, through crowds and some even inside and out of taxis. Or, what about the lap top industry taking notice about the weight people carry around all day to do their jobs? Most women carry a large bag because they commute to work and need extra items to make it through the day. Or, they are too busy to clean out the bag before they leave the house. Students have been lugging heavy book bags for year. What's their health concerns? You may think it is a joke, but some women like carrying a large purse because it makes them feel smaller. There are a lot of big women who think they look strange carrying anything less than a large bag. A bag plus normal contents equals normal handbag weight.

There are many large handbag styles that weight little. Chanel handbags, even with long chain straps, uses light weight lamb leather and vinyl in its designs. The USA brand of Tano all-leather bags are light weight considering their size. Gucci uses monogram fabric in their construction making the bag weight tolerable.

Women who commute and travel to and from work everday enjoy taking a bottle of water, a book to read, some munchies and female essentials. These women either carry a small purse and a second tote bag/briefcase or one large attractive designer handbag. This does not mean the same weight in a purse is carried out to dinner on a Saturday night or when shopping at the grocery store. There's a purpose behind the heavy handbag, and it hasn't caused any life-threatening disease. We may want to look closer at these "handbag rental" companies who pass along germs and viruses from person-to-person instead. Yuck, just the thought of using a handbag a stranger has carried is repulsive. Renting a designer handbag poses more health issues than carrying a heavy bag!

SECOND issue - Limiting designer handbag sales by the department stores.

This is such an unrealistic predictor of designer bag sales. Most of the websites in question have had a limit on the number of designer items they would sell regardless of the "breaking news." Plus, it won't hurt the sale or resale of designer purses. Women will buy what they want and figure out a way to get it regardless of anyone's rules! What we should really be focused upon is the prices women pay for their fashion icon purchases. Seems like there's a much bigger issue here than quantity. The issue should be quality and cost. The weakness of the USD plays an important part, too. Some handbags sell for the same price as a new car! That's what we need to look at. Not, how many we are allowed to purchase, but rather how much we have to pay to own one.

The best materials come from Europe. Italy's leather and designs have ranked the highest over the years. However, if the same bag was assembled in a more cost-effective manner, the price would be less. The hype about Hermes, Chanel, Gucci, Prada, Burberry, etc. is all just a matter of taste, style and design. Some of the design houses are notorious about pricing. Others, focus more on production and distribution. Then, the counterfeit market jumps onboard and screws it up for all of us. In the end, it doesn't matter how much women are allowed to purchase, it's how they can figure out a way to manipulate the system to get what they want.

The best example is the Hermes Birkin bag. The bag is large, heavy, hand-held and high-priced. Most women who want one figure out a way to get it even though they are rarely available through Hermes. Look at eBay. There are sellers on eBay who list 10-15 Birkin bags. Where are they getting these bags if Hermes limits the manufacturing, distribution and resale of the coveted Birkin? Someone figured out a way to buy them regardless of the Designer's decision for limiting sales. Honestly, most women who carry a Birkin suffer from hand, wrist and neck pain due to its weight. Even Jane Birkin herself reports she stopped carrying the bag because over time it became too painful. The empty Birkin bag outweighs any other handbag filled with a person's daily essentials.

CONCLUSION.

Are we concened? Is there something we need to worry about? Or, is the designer handbag industry looking for ways to sell more bags? The fashion bag industry is booming. In 2005, the average cost of a designer purse the major high-end department stores was about $2000. In 2007, the same item averaged about $3000. A woman's designer handbag wishes are here to stay regardless of health issues, availability and cost. Women get what they want, and in the fashion industry they suffer to look good! This is not going to change or fade away in the near future. So, go shopping and carry on....it doesn't matter how much you spend or how much it weighs. Every working woman deserves the designer handbag of their dreams!

My first Tano bag - "Circa" 1964

Right around the same time "I Want to Hold Your Hand" hit the radio, I purchased my first TANO Handbag. Believe it or not, if you had asked me then if I thought Tano was better than the Beatles' music, I would've chosen Tano.

Yes, it's true. My favorite handbag designer in 1964 was TANO. I was 14 and already addicted to style and fashion. In those days, we sewed much of our clothing, traded, borrowed from each other, and saved our money to buy Gloria Vanderbuilt designer jeans! Buying a new purse was the most important task of all because back then, you had only one purse.

I remember my first Tano purchase as though it was yesterday. My school friend and I saved our money for a Tano barrel bag. It was cool! All the girls were carrying them. At least the cool ones -- so we thought.

Our little Midwest hometown wasn't much when it came to fashion as it's stated nowadays. Nonetheless, we had a few really cool clothing stores downtown and a handbag store -- Hollebs, Garbs and Elliots! The handbag store, Garbs, sold all the best bags available -- Coach was probably one of the highest styles at that time. And, there was Tano.

We loved the Tano styles because they were cool, affordable and made well. Nice to know not much has changed when it comes to Tano quality. We saved our babysitting money and bought our Tano bags, and it made us feel cool.

I wish I had a picture of my first Tano purse! The bag was a barrle shape, had double straps to carry over the arm. The body of the bag was partially covered with a heavy woven burlap style twill cloth, and it had complimentary black leather trim. The front of the purse closed with a flap front and a turnlock closure.

I'm telling you, this Tano barrel bag became one of the icons of the mid-60's. Gee, I wish I could remember the price, and I wish I still had that bag, or just a photo of it now. But, the memories still live on. The images I remember of those days include a teased, bubble hair style, white sneakers with nylon panty hose stockings and a very cool, black Tano handbag.

I have Tano to thank for creating fond fashion memories.

A modern briefcase Tano Bag Electroplate 3755

So, I shop for fun and always find something to buy. Recently, TANO leather bags have caught my eye. They are really irrisitable. Tano quality has improved over the past few years, and the styles and designs are truly amazing.

The Tano handbag pictured above is called the Electroplate, style number 3755. It's a new Tano style this season. It's available in a variety of colors and our favorite is black, brown or gray. Gray is a hot color this season and there are many Tano purses available in gray. Gray is the new black for Fall 07.

Tano bags are made with a working girl in mind. The exterior is all leather. Leather is so easy to keep clean and maintain. The leather Tano handbags are constructed of is soft, light weight and finished. Many of the styles use a distressed washed leather making the look even more contemporary and modern. An aged look adds to the Tano bag's appeal.

The Electroplate design above is constructed of a smooth soft leather that will take on a nice soft wear over time. The interior is fully lined in cloth and there are several extra inside pockets. Tano's handbags always provide organized options for the user. There's a pocket for credit cards or business cards. There are zipper pockets and open pouches for cell phones, too. It's amazing how wonderful Tano handbags are made considering their price.

High end designer handbags sell for several hundreds or thousands of dollars. Who can afford a new purse with those prices? I have responsiblities in life. You know, things like rent, groceries, gas, etc. So, the funds I have left can't be squandered on a high end designer purse. The bag in the photo retails for as high as $350 in some boutiques and as little as $234 in others. Shopping around for the best price is the name of the game when it comes to designer purses.

TANO handbags - the affordable adorable designer purse

TANO handbags

Tano is an affordable designer handbag with all the attributes a woman could want. The Tano handbag is made of beautiful, soft Italian crunch leather. Many of the Tano bags have different leather finishes making them unique from one to another. The Tano handbag is always fully lined and has several inside pockets to hold small essentials. Usually, the exterior of the Tano bag is also designed with extra pockets. Many of the styles use zippers, turn lock closures and drawstrings.

One of the best features of a Tano handbag is its size. Most of the leather Tano bags are big and roomy -- large enough to carry everything you'll need for the day. Most women work outside of the home and travel to work. It's nice to carry your day's necessities in a fashionable handbag -- a multi-functional purse or tote bag.

Tano recently introduced a collection of smaller bags. The clutch bags and wristlet bags are adorable and a perfect size. The Tano clutch bag can fit inside one of the larger sizes easily. It's convenient to carry a small handbag inside a large handbag. Especially, if you spend the day away from home running errands or meeting someone for lunch. Sometimes it's not necessary to carry a large purse, and so, the smaller clutch is perfect to carry to a luncheon or to run inside a store.

The latest trends in handbags usually dictate design with details like studs, chains, straps and fringe. The Tano handbag collection uses a variety of design characteristics making their bag trend setters. Plus, the colors Tano uses for their new collections every season change to introduce just the right amount of variety a woman needs. The standard, basic, neutral shades are also always available with every new collection.

Tano handbags are affordable and adorable. The price range for a brand new Tano leather handbag is about $100 - $230. The woven leathers are also in the same price range. Tano handbags are absolutely one of the best priced purses a woman can buy!

The handbag explosion over the past few years is a phenomenon. Women wear a pair of jeans with a T-shirt and flip-flops and top it off with a high-end designer handbag. Some of the designer purses cost thousands of dollars. The rising cost of these expensive trendy bags is amazing.

Because most women own more than one purse, it's important to consider the price when shopping for a new handbag. Other factors like style, design and fabrication also play an important role in purchasing a new purse. For durability, there's nothing better than leather. Design is more of a trendy characteristic. The style depends on how the handbag will be used.

But, the most important factor is usually price. Most women have bills to pay like rent or mortgage every month. So, it doesn't make sense to go into debt for a new handbag. Although, many women do!

A Tano Handbag is a Modern Day Classic!

Women spend a lot of money on designer fashion accessories, especially designer handbags. My favorite picks are designer purses made by Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Goyard, and Hermes. My closet is filled with these famous brands, and it's an investment I made over the past ten years. I enjoy buying and owning a classic handbag.

Lately, the leather handbags made by Tano have caught my attention. Tano handbags are not high priced and can be bought for under $250. Yet the Tano handbag is made very well with lots of room, colorful leathers and details beyond one's expectations.

The Tano handbag brand has been a famous name for a very long time, too. Tano handbags were being made as far back as 1912. The Tano Company owes its success to its founder Sebatian "Tano" Giner. Over the years, the Tano Company was managed by the Giner Family. Even today, the fashionable Tano handbags are being designed and sold by Steve and Seb Giner. The Tano handbag is a legacy.

Tano handbags have always had a modern look and feel. Tano handbags are a modern day classic because Tano keeps up with the times and provides an affordable handbag perfect to use everyday. Tano bags are very contemporary looking with sleek styles and versatile functionality. Many of the styles are large, roomy shoulder bags with lots of pockets and comfortable straps. Tano leather handbags are light weight compared to others, too. Even the larger styles aren't heavy to carry because Tano bags are usually uncontructed creating a slouchy, comfortable design.

When I was a little girl it was fun to dress up in Mom's clothes and pretend I was a fashionable woman with style and grace. I remember the leather clutch bags and Kelly bags from the 1950's, 60's and 70's as though it was yesterday. But I never paid attention to labels back then and don't know if any of the bags my mother owned were from famous designers. Now, I wonder if she had a Gucci or two, and wonder if Tano handbag was her favorite.

Mom would take down all her hat boxes open them and place them on the bed for me to try on. It was so much fun! Her hats had veils to pull over the front of my face. They had feathers and long decorative hat pins to add style. They were made of satin and felt. She called them pill box hats. She loved them.

Mom's shoe collection was smart and diverse. Many of the shoes were black and they all had high heels. The leather high heeled shoes were truly a challenge and made dressing up in Mom's accessories a day to remember. The hats, shoes and bags were all color coordinated. Women carried a red leather handbag wearing red leather shoes and a red hat. Everything matched!

When I read Vogue and see today's styles, many remind me of my mom's collection. Fashion trends come and go. History repeats itself. Designers create and recreate pulling ideas from inspiring thoughts and memories. Not much changes, the prices get much higher, but the styles, fabrications and colors are very much the same.

TANO Handbags - An American Favorite!

It's fun to watch a company grow and be a committed part of that growth. Tano handbags have become one of our favorites. Over the past few years we've watched the leathers transform from smooth and sleek to distressed, washed and weathered. Some of the styles used to be more constructed, but today the Tano handbag styles have become soft, comfortable and very modern.


If you look closely at the designs, your favorite Tano bags will have a hint of the high-end designers'. This is accomplished without the high price tag associated with the designer handbags we see on Rodeo Drive, Michigan Avenue or Fifth Avenue. Luxury does not need to have a thousand dollar price tag.


Take a look at some of the Tano bags from prior seasons. They are sleek, colorful, stylish, resemble high-end designs and cost under $200. The Tano handbags are fully lined and always have extra storage pockets for all your needs. There's a cell phone pocket, too and makes it really easy to grab the phone call before it's lost.


Have you noticed? Most of the Tano purses have straps long enough to carry over the shoulder. We love shoulder bags. They are easy to carry and keep our hands free to shop, shop, shop! The leather and fabrics used are of the highest quality comparable to the prices paid. Why pay thousands of dollars for a leather bag when you can buy a Tano purse for under $200.


Metallic leathers have become very popular. Metallic leathers have always been available, but the past few years they have taken on a new twist. In the past, a metallic leather handbag was used primarily for an evening or very dressy affair. Now, you can carry a metallic leather handbag as your everyday purse and feel hip, stylish and very comfortable.

The Tano metallic leather designs and styles are made of very soft napa leather making them light weight and easy to carry. Some of the Tano metallic leathers are distressed making them even more contemporary and modern.


Distressed leathers and washed leathers are very popular nowadays. Leave it to Tano to be at the forefront with modern styles and designs using distressed leathers and washed leathers for their beautiful handbag collections.

The colors are always right-on target. Over the years the true shades of red, brown, blue, green, orange, purple, and yellow have been transformed to objects we love to carry. There's also the shades of gray and our favorite black leathers we must have in our Tano purse collection.


By now, if you haven't seen or owned a Tano purse, it might be time you do. For the best prices and widest online selection, please visit eFashionHouse.com. Search for Tano at eFashionHouse.com and you may even be able to find some older styles in the Sale and Clearance sections of the site.

TANO handbags: A powerful return

In 2005, the TANO handbag website included history about the business and its owners. The owners, always members of the original founder of Tano, have made the Tano Handbag business one of the most popular handbag manufacturers in the USA. Tano bags date back to 1947. That means most of our ancestors who bought purses in the USA probably carried a Tano handbag. Isn't that an exciting thought? Now, we are such handbag addicts, it's an amusing thought to think your cousin, mom, sister, even grandmother carried a gorgeous Tano designer handbag.


Here's the excerpt taken directly from the TANO handbag website in 2005. Enjoy the read. You'll learn much about the hard work and dedication put into the manufacture and distribution of one of the most popular leather bags of our time.

Tano, now under new ownership, is making an exciting come back, and has a super-hot line that the market is a-buzz about!


COMPANY HISTORY


Tano was started in 1947 by Sebastian Giner, an artisan basket and bag maker from the Mediterranean village of Murla, Spain.

In 1960, he turned it over to his two sons, Sebastian and Peter. The company enjoyed tremendous success in the 70’s and 80’s, and was considered to be the top American handbag company for many years during that era. In 2002, Sebastian’s two sons, Steve and Seb, took over the reigns, bringing with them a bold and fresh new vision for the company. Determined to be the premier line in the mid price fashion handbag market, they’ve created one of the sharpest brand revivals ever seen in the industry! Says Seb, “This is our third season and we couldn’t have imagined such a positive explosion of our business. We’ve been selling to lots of the nation’s most exciting specialty stores, and seeing reorder business as we’ve never seen before. When you have a brand new customer base and 90% of them are either reordering in season or coming back for the new collections that’s when you know you’ve got a unique proposition that nobody in the market can match.”

THE DESIGNER

Steve is the creative force behind Tano. He has a passion for materials, an eye for shapes, and a love of hand rendered details. Three times a year, he travels to Florence, Italy to develop new styles and materials, working with the best tanneries and pattern makers in the world. On the flip side, he also has a nose for business; an MBA from NYU, fluency in Italian and Spanish, combined with 15 years of experience in wholesaling and retailing handbags within the family firm, give him a comprehensive understanding of the industry. “First and foremost, we want to make bags that are irresistible, bags that stylish women will covet but it’s not enough to make cool bags- they have to be priced right, given hand finished quality, and delivered on time.”

THE COLLECTION

Tano handbags are loaded with color and attitude. Cut from the finest Italian leather, and often embellished with handmade details, they are coveted by women with style who aren’t afraid to express themselves. This Fall, Tano nods to runway trends with lots of luxe materials and rich colors. The Metalique collection, including stylish shapes in metallic gold, silver, pewter, and blue, was on fire at the recent New York shows. The Dylan group, a young, urban look, excites with its irresistibly soft skin and hand distressed, contrast trimming. “With Dylan we took the liberty to destroy what we created in order to give the bags ‘edge.’ We used sandpaper, soap and water to get just the right attitude. Bags are best when they look lived in.” In our ever popular glazed Italian Bello leather, we offer not only a new palette (purple, moss, burnt orange, yellow leaf, expresso, and denim blue) but a wide range of new silhouettes as well, including the Spring roll tote - selected for Angela Rich’s popular “I Want, I Need, I Have To Have It” column in InStyle magazine’s January 2005 issue and the Guerrilla Tote – selected as a Lucky Magazine editor’s pick for the upcoming September 2004 issue.

TANO handbags - How it all began

In 2006, the Tano bag website had a section called "Core." Here's an excerpt from the Core of the Tano Handbag company taken directly from the Tano website in 2006.


Tano's Modernist Roots

When Sebastian "Tano" Giner was just learning to crawl in the rural mountain village of Murla, Spain the Modernist era was exploding with creativity and excitement in world's big cites. The Modernists were turing the arts inside out...architecture, dance, literature, music, painting, and fashion. "Make it new," said Ezra Pound the great Modernist poet, and the artistic visionaries of the era followed his call.

See Photo: The origins. Local basket makers gather outside the chalet of Sebastian "Tano" Giner. 1912.

See Photo: Assembly table at Tano Iberica of Madrid. 1962.

True to the modernist spirit, when the first electric sewing machines arrived in Spain, Tano was the first harness the technology and apply it to his craft. He expanded his product range to burlap sacks. The well proportioned bags were later adorned with leather handles and became a local fashion favorite. In time, Tano bags along with espadrilles from the neighboring city of Elche, would become the standard dress code in the region and later throughout Spain and Europe.


Tano's vision became one of innovation and discovery in handbags through shape, material, and color. Each new season brought renewed creativity and an expanding audience that couldn't get enough. In 1960, he turned the operations over to his two sons, Sebastian and Peter to fulfill his bold new vision. Together they opened the first modern handbag production line in Europe, Tano Iberica of Madrid. The brothers invested in new technologies at each opportunity so that they could quickly turn their artistic ideas into bags their audience could enjoy. The factory won the praises of the Spanish Export Council and earned recognition as Spain's largest and highest quality exporter of sewn goods during the 1960's and 1970's. The factory became the model which handbag factories around the globe would follow.

the American Ambassador to Spain. 1965.

In 2002, the company entered it's third generation of family management. Grandson's Steve and Seb, took over the reigns, bringing with them a colorful past of handbag innovation and leadership. Says Steve of the company's future "We hold our company's past in the highest esteem. But ironically we must have a certain irreverence for all things past. This is how we keep our bags fresh. This was an integral piece of our grandfather's vision. We need to keep making it new."
