Any recommendations for a handbag shop in Venice? Italian, not mAss produced
When we spent a month in Venice a few years ago, I often walked by Giovanna Zanella’s shop near Rialto Bridge, where she would be at work all the time. It was fascinating to watch her. The website does not mention handbags, but I recall seeing them in her shop window.

If she doesn’t have handbags any more, maybe try this guy (but he may be in Mestre).:
Or look through the Authentic Venice website for more:
Il Grifone has wonderful handmade leather handbags.
I like Il Grifone, but I'd also recommend Raggio Veneziano.
