“Beauty is a delicate necessity, elegance is an immortal quality”
In a time where “Fast Fashion” is the market-leading trend, Greta Mars embraced the opposite way of “Slow Fashion”, pursuing refinement, class, and evergreen quality.
Florence, a gorgeous place, an open museum, is the source of inspiration for the making of elegance:
the fusion between modernity, classic style, simplicity, care for materials and details.
The results are bags of the finest hand-craft class.
Greta Mars is a brand that combines talent, elegance and style; a brand born to satisfy its owners with the exciting scent of quality blended with the joy of the real Italian luxury.
Kkoon [kkun] it’s a Korean word meaning an excellent people who enjoy his job.
The journey of two dreamers began in Santa croce sull’arno, Florence.
Toscana, in all its wonder, lies at the heart of our artistry – inspiring the design and providing the finest materials.
The philosophy that “the best material creates true beauty” is the very backbone of our design and manufacturing process.
In our exceedingly busy modern society, we suggest taking to smell the roses.
Little pleasures in everyday life such as a cup of tea, a walk with the dog, a visit to a small vintage street shop – we capture these moments and incorporate them in our design.
Join us on our journey and discover the beauty that lies around every corner.
