Giorgio Linea stands out amongst the manufacturers of excellence in the prestigious district of Florence universally acclaimed as the hub of Italian artisanal leather goods. Established more than 30 years ago by visionary entrepreneur Barbara Ricchi, mind and heart of the atelier, Giorgio Linea developed close collaborations with top fashion and luxury brands such as Givenchy, Burberry, Stella McCartney, Karl Lagerfeld, Céline, Giorgio Armani, Chloé, Roberto Cavalli, Salvatore Ferragamo, Balenciaga and Ermanno Scervino.

Barbara Ricchi has collected this incredible heritage of creativity and craftsmanship into a dedicated archive called MyVintageAcademy, that can be visited at the Giorgio Linea premises. This vibrant creative space was designed with the aim of handing down the Italian tradition of craftsmanship. It is a non-conventional workshop, where know-how and passion mingle, devoted to the research of materials, solutions and inspiration.
