The first thing the porter sees. The last thing you check at the carousel. A name and a number, cut into leather that ages with the trunk it rides on.

Fits the handles of every major case maker we tested — Rimowa, Globe-Trotter, July, Tumi, Briggs & Riley, the unbranded vintage one you bought in Buenos Aires.
Cut thicker than the rest of the collection — 2 mm — because the luggage tag takes more impact in a single trip than the passport wallet does in a decade. The slip-back means your name and number sit behind the leather face, hidden from anyone but the porter or the bag handler who has cause to look.
Buttero saddle hide, vegetable-tanned over forty days in oak and chestnut bark. The same tannery has been working the Arno since 1947; the same hide stiffens, then softens, then darkens with the years.
Solid brass, sand-cast and brushed to a satin gold finish in a four-person workshop outside Vicenza. No plating — so it patinas rather than peels.
A heavy oat twill woven on the same looms that supply the Milanese tailoring houses. Removable, washable, replaceable — included spare, sent with every piece.
Three or four trips. Buttero starts firm — that's what holds the shape — then softens around the things you carry. After a year it will have darkened roughly half a tone and started to show the marks of your travel. That is the point.
Wipe with a barely damp cloth. Once a season, a thin coat of clear leather balm — we ship a small tin with every order. Do not use saddle soap, alcohol wipes, or anything labelled "leather cleaner" from a supermarket.
Post it back to Sorrento and we will repair it — re-stitching, re-burnishing edges, replacing hardware — for as long as the piece exists. Return shipping on us within the first five years; at cost after that. The atelier that made it is the atelier that fixes it.

All six pieces — passport, dopp, card holder, tech pouch, luggage tag, silk eye mask — cut from the same Buttero hide so the colour reads as one object. Hand-wrapped in our gold-foiled Sorrento box with a letterpressed bon voyage note.
