Leather for glamorous dogs

  • • Jacopo never tires of improving their luxury pet accessories
  • • He aims for lightness, comfort and safety
  • • He is the third generation to work for Malucchi

Jacopo Malucchi is the third generation to be guardian of the family firm. The Malucchi brand has become synonymous with combining the centuries-old know-how of the ancient Florentine artisans with the innovation and evolution that sees clients wanting only the very best for their pets. The history of their family run business dates back to the 1930s when Libero Malucchi, along with his brother, started selling their handcrafted shoes in Florence. In 1977, his son Riccardo established the company "Malucchi" which specialised in the production of pet accessories and, in particular, they started to manufacture animal collars. Jacopo changed the focus of the business, specialising on the luxury end of the market. With Jacopo at the helm, they produce less but their focus is entirely on the quality of the pet accessories. They select raw materials with extreme care and work with ancient Florence techniques. The result is precious, elegant and captivating collars, leashes and harnesses in different styles. According to their customers, the Malucchi collar has only one flaw: it lasts too long.

Volcano collar

This Malucchi collar is made out of elegant suede leather, wonderful to the touch and internally finished in soft calfskin of the same colour. The collection takes its name from the particular and innovative heat-sealed processing of Swarovski stones, played in contrast, which creates a movement of sparkling shades of light, as powerful and evocative as the vibrant ancestral emotion that brings a feeling to life of a nocturnal explosion of a volcanic eruption.

Dana collar

The Dana collar collection was born from an act of love: Dana is Jacopo Malucchi’s magnificent American Bulldog. She is the inspiration behind these creations that combine gold and Swarovski emeralds with extremely soft and supple black leathers. A dark glamorous frame that honours the beauty of the pet and the design recalls the harmonious shapes of the rings of the most prestigious necklaces that history has handed down to us.

Lover collar

Two handmade suede leather stripes are combined with Swarovski elements: here is the perfect interweaving of beauty and functionality. A union of love that, to Jacopo Malucchi, represents an indissoluble bond beyond time and space; an evocation of an emotional universe enhanced by top-level style, elegance, and craftsmanship. Warm earthy colours are perfectly balanced with the symmetry of shapes – the decoration symbolises infinity.

Amalfi collar

This series is made of blue suede and soft calf leather lining, reflecting the spirit of the Mediterranean. From the cobalt of the sea, to the yellow of the lemons and the orange of the majolica tiles of the ancient villas overlooking the sea. The collar is distinguished by the unique combination of gold and blue Swarovski elements, in a dialogue of timeless light and beauty.

Bright Greyhound collar

The Bright collection expresses a solid, vigorous elegance thanks to the silver studs, it is adapted from the company's signature Bullet series. This sequence of Swarovski stones at the centre of the creations is in perfect combination with the colour of the leather, selected according to the highest criteria of quality, softness and resistance, shaped by skilled artisan hands.
