It the 30s of the last century, when Libero, my grandfather, learned the art of craftsmanship in the shop of a shoe factory. Hands which, day after day, without respite, always knew better and worked, with dedication, the leathers, to give shape to a real masterpiece.
After the Second World War, together with his brother, Libero created handmade shoes, sold with increasing success and positive feedback on the streets of Florence. My father Riccardo was born into the family leather goods business, attracted since childhood by the art of leather processing, realign itself toys with great inventiveness, using the various leather scraps of the production process.
In 1977 Riccardo founded the Malucchi company, dedicating to specific creations and articles for the world of Pet, that have always been a great love of his. Our business grows, is articulated, and creates connections and collaborations all over the world, creating a new market segment that responds to increasingly growing requests and needs, even of well-known celebrities.
At the end of the nineties, Riccardo exhibited his first collection, "MALUCCHI MADE IN ITALY", at the Nuremberg International Fair, arousing excitement and interest. This was the turning point. In fact, for the first time the great Tuscan artisan traditions, of which he and my grandfather were purposeful exponents, become a real luxurious art in the form of prestigious accessories for dogs of all sizes and types.
From that moment on, the Malucchi brand evolved exponentially, up to stand among the first producers of world craftsmanship in the luxury market for the pet industry, meeting the attention and taste of an increasingly quality-conscious clientele of unique and distinctive creations.
