Frankfurt-based bag maker Tsatsas exudes a clarity and quality that we admire. So much so that we have offered our Munich shop for an exhibition.

Although [Tsatsas](http://www.tsatsas.com) was founded in 2012 by Dimitrios Tsatsas and Esther Shulze-Tsatsas, bag making has been in the family for more than 30 years. Dimitrios grew up in his father's workshop in Offenbach am Main – a region of Germany famed for its leather work.

[Tsatsas bags](http://www.tsatsas.com/collection.html) are hand-made by the Tsatsas family ensuring the the highest integrity.

Leather-working tools, hides and patterns are displayed to give an insight to the meticulous construction of each item.

The details in each bag catch your eye but the [leathers](http://www.tsatsas.com/leather.html) hold it. Bags use either a calf or lamb skin but are always aniline-dyed to preserve the natural marks in the hides. We share a belief that [character should be celebrated](/620) – an enviable patina will develop with time.

All bags feature a full pacific-blue nappa lining, as used by glove makers: equal attention is paid to interior and exterior. Each Tsatsas bag is numbered. The latest bag in our shop shows 000552 – we are confident the zeros will disappear in years to come.

See more of Tsatsas's bags and our growing furniture collection at our [Munich shop](/contact), now until 26 November.
