Our Story

Born from a passion for timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship, we started with a clear purpose: to create handmade luxury leather bags that transcend fleeting trends. From our workshop on the Greek island of Alonissos, every design begins with the calm rhythm of the Aegean and the spirit of authenticity the island inspires. We shape each piece thoughtfully to become an heirloom. An object of classic beauty, purpose, and lasting value. Moreover, by uniting the artistry of Greek craftsmanship with the renowned traditions of Italian and French tanning, we create accessories that embody handmade luxury in its purest form. Ultimately, these are pieces meant to be worn, cherished, and passed on.

A Commitment to Handmade Luxury

From our humble beginnings, we have always chosen handmade luxury over mass production. At Jaco Atelier, every decision is guided by respect for craftsmanship and a commitment to doing things the right way, not the fast way. We use the finest full-grain leathers, solid brass or stainless-steel hardware, and premium finishes, materials chosen for their beauty, integrity, and ability to age gracefully.

Our hardware is created with the same philosophy: exceptional materials, refined finishing, and a distinct protective layer applied entirely by hand. This extra process deepens the color, enhances durability, and gives each component a signature look that is extremely difficult to reproduce in replicas. It is one of the quiet details that sets our pieces apart.

While we use machines where extra strength or detail is unnecessary to ensure efficiency, every part that demands precision and durability is crafted by hand, from saddle stitching to edge finishing, preserving the authenticity and soul of true craftsmanship.

The Art of Craftsmanship

Our creative process is slow, deliberate, and rooted in excellence. We honor age-old techniques like saddle stitching and hand-burnished edges, while embracing subtle innovation to enhance modern functionality.

We consider every stitch, every curve, and every edge carefully. Our goal is to create not just leather goods, but enduring expressions of handmade luxury and character, pieces that support daily life with grace and style.

Sharing Our Vision

Through our Lookbook and behind-the-scenes glimpses, we invite you into the world of Jaco Atelier. In addition, we proudly share the artistry and devotion behind every creation. We also believe in transparency and sustainability. All the leathers we use are by-products of the food industry, ensuring no animal is ever harmed for the sake of leather alone. By working with natural hides that would otherwise go to waste, we honor the full lifecycle of the material while creating long-lasting pieces that reduce the need for replacement. Wherever you are, we hope you feel a connection to our values, elegance, integrity, and the timeless spirit of handmade luxury.
