Cappello & Martello is an Italian lifestyle and accessories label specialising in leather products. The brand is founded by Italian product and fashion designer Luca Paglia during his residence in Hong Kong.
‘Cappello’ means hat, while ‘Martello’ means hammer. These are on Luca's head and in Luca's hand. Research and audacity combining craftsmanship with a creative flair.
Focusing on Italian high quality leather goods, the design is inspired by Luca’s passion for his home Sicily: the vibrant colours, the history and the joyousness of Sicilian people. Each piece is conceived to give a unique experience of craftsmanship in the fusion of perky and contemporary aesthetics.
