It is the story of two guys who, in the course of life, fell in love with beautiful things and had a strong desire to create.
JT is Jeff and Tony.
JT is about an ETERNAL love they share for moody colors like blood red, midnight blue and flesh, romantic secrets and hidden pleasures, flirting, dark chocolate and strong coffee, all things horsey, the smell and feel of vegetable tanned leather and the look of old alligator bags, ebony and vintage glass, tarnished silver and gold, the patina of well worn vacchetta, the beautiful imperfection of handmade, monograms, naively wicked girls and sweetly confident girls, girls with long straight hair and girls with soulful voices, red lipsticked lips, dark hair and pale skin, Caravaggio paintings and Brancusi sculptures, the taste of a Gewurztraminer from the Alto Adige, Florence and the hills of Tuscany, aimless meandering and dinners in Paris, spending time with close friends in New York, divine decadence and the sober appreciation of the beauty all around us.
After many affairs over the past 17 YEARS with some of the greats such as Giorgio Armani Privè, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan and Ralph Lauren, not to mention the dalliances with a few of fashion's emerging talents, we come to their long awaited introduction of JT and their debut collection of HANDBAGS. A collection that embodies their PASSION for creating beautiful things and reflects their eternal loves. Their virtues of design expressed through the volume of bag, the thickness of a thread, the drape of the leather or the tongue of a buckle. A passion that lead them to ITALY in search of the best materials, the best artisans and the best producers. Their constant quest to harness old-world CRAFTSMANSHIP and QUALITY in the endless pursuit of true LUXURY that is JT HANDBAGS.
