From Como with Love and Luxury
Made in Como
At Todeschini Como, we are proud to be part of Northern Italy's rich tapestry of design, craftsmanship, and innovation. Our region boasts iconic brands such as B&B Italia, renowned for furniture by Gaetano Pesce and Patricia Urquiola; Clerici Tessuto, a unique producer of fine silk and cashmere since 1922; and the legendary motorcycle manufacturer Moto Guzzi, operating since 1921. We also share our roots with esteemed jewelers Zanotti Orafo and the globally recognized children's brand Chicco.
Where Cinema Meets Scenic Splendor
Lake Como has long captivated filmmakers and audiences alike. Its breathtaking landscapes have served as the backdrop for numerous iconic films, including Rocco and His Brothers, Once Upon a Time in America, Star Wars, Ocean’s Twelve, and Casino Royale. The latter features a memorable scene at Villa La Gaeta, where James Bond confronts his adversary amidst the lake's serene beauty.
Beyond cinema, Lake Como's allure has attracted luxury brands for their advertising campaigns. Names like Dolce & Gabbana, Hermès, Saint Laurent, and Versace have all drawn inspiration from the lake's elegance and charm.
Architectural Inspirations
Designer Gianfranco Ferré once remarked, "I started my career in fashion with accessories... because, initially, I am an architect." This sentiment resonates deeply with us. Surrounded by architectural marvels like Villa Balbiano, Villa del Balbianello, Villa Carlotta, Villa Monastero, Villa Olmo, and Villa Melzi, we draw inspiration from their timeless designs.
Our latest collection reflects this influence. The gray ray leather belt mirrors the stone hues of Villa Balbiano's entrance, while the blue shades of our crocodile belts capture the lake's vibrant tones during summer months.
Stay Connected to Como
Many of our clients have explored the enchanting locales of Como, Bellagio, and Varenna. They've wandered through historic villas, dined in gourmet restaurants, and perhaps even visited the medieval Castello di Vezio, with its ethereal gauze ghosts. Some may have journeyed to Isola Comacina, the lake's sole island, once home to literary figure Alessandro Manzoni.
Through our handcrafted belts, we aim to encapsulate the essence of Lake Como, allowing you to carry a piece of its beauty and heritage wherever you go.
