Has anyone heard of this brand? Looks like it is debuting on Evine at noon. It reminds me of Patricia Nash. I can't seem to post a picture of the bag I like. It's called Nora.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn that this is possiby an Evine 'house brand' or is otherwise a line making bags almost exclusively for Evine. Searching seemed to show only Evine as a resource for them. They might be very nice bags. I've never heard of them.

Interestingly enough, I did note that despite the Italian name, the few bags I checked out were all made in India...

I wonder if it is a division of Anuschka ?? Looks like that brand mixed with shades of Patricia Nash. Huh...

Geez, the host did a terrible job this morning...rushed, no dimensions etc. I went with the denim pouch.

I too was thinking it appears they tossed Nash, Anushka and Madi Clair into a bucket and came up with this...

Other than often having a nice variety of the brands they offer and choices of colors, I rarely find the home shopping channels a great resource for handbags, and certainly not for a variety of brands.

@hicindy2you are right about the presentation. All the hosts are bad with doing presentations of bags. I did order this and the matching bag. I need another handbag like a hole in the head but I couldn't resist them.

I have never heard of these until today. I thought they looked very nice.

This designer workd for and designed for SHARIF and his bags were sold @ Macys (his bags were locked behind glass), JC Penney (when store was consider high end), and most recently sold on HSN, I have purchased several of the Firenze Bella line and they are very nice leatherm, no fillers,padding to make the leather look a certain way it is full grain leather and they are much like the Patricia Nash line of fine leather bags using full grain leather, @ a reasonable price, which proved to me that many bags out on the market are over price because of the name.

But the leather is from processed in Italy and constructed in India which makes the bags a lot more reasonable in price.

I have several of their bags and it is a throw bag to the 1970's type of leather, full grain leather not top grain (thin,bonded) I like them !

This leather used in Firenze Bella and Patricia Nash is "FULL GRAIN" ( only the hair has been removed )and it is the best the best!!no bonding, thin layers of leather glued together, I just read on types of leather, alot of bags we are buying are 100% leather which means it is bonded and reconstituted !!!!! that is why it is so soft and mushy!!! I have Patricia Nash and Firenze bags and the leather is the best vintage leather like they made in ITALY a long time ago, it will really last forever, same leather they used back in the 1970's. Please look up "three types of leather used in handbags" the information is amazing, that is why so many people complain that their bags are peeling are edges of leather has rubbed off, OMG !!! WE HAVE BEEN DUPED!!! we must educate ourselves on leather !!!! from now on I WILL only purchase FULL GRAIN leather products.

You are so wrong, it is FULL GRAIN leather and it is NOT EVINE house brand!

Re: Firenze Bella

CNO — Sun, 20 Aug 2017 00:07:16 GMT

No it is not a division of Anuschka, the designer used to design for SHERIF and now has her own line which is better leather than DOONEY, why you ask ....well it is FULL GRAIN leather the best !!!just like Patricia Nash yes it is a little stiffer but it does break down after a wile because it is pure leather not bonded, reconstitued, which is the poorest form or is it thin layers of leather glued together, it is FULL GRAIN leather only the hair has been removed.

@CNO, no one is arguing with you. Posters were just not familiar with the brand.

No argument here, it is just a full and complete answer, maybe alittle strong for you are maybe I was not POLITICALLY correct but it is what it is ............
