One of Bottega Veneta’s famed mottos, “When your own initials are enough”, has held strong since the 1970s. Today, the Italian fashion house doubles, or rather triples, down on that belief with three core ways to personalise its signature leather goods. Each of these exceptional methods turns a beloved classic into a one-of-a-kind heirloom.
For starters, Bottega Veneta lets you add up to three letters, from A to Z, delicately embossed by hand. This service applies to selected belts and wallets, and it can be done online or in-store. Better yet, the personalisation comes at no extra charge. It is simple, thoughtful and distinctly Bottega Veneta.
Then comes the second option, featuring gold- and silver-tone square brass clips shaped as limited-edition symbols and letters. These clever clips are designed specifically to attach to the Intrecciato weave, adding character without overwhelming the design. It’s best to consult a client advisor, who will guide you on placement for the perfect finish.

The third, and most exclusive, method lies in Bottega Veneta’s Made To Order service. This bespoke pathway lets you choose your leather, including precious exotics, as well as colour. Then you can add initials to make the bag completely yours. Artisans in Montebello, Italy craft each piece by hand, complete with special packaging and a personalised brass plaque.
Ultimately, Bottega Veneta’s personalisation services let you transform its signature logo-free leather goods into unique lifelong possessions. They prove, once again, that your own initials are, and always will be, enough.
