From Italy, With Love: How We Curate Handbags & Clothing Across Europe

At Ellar Nova, we believe in sourcing with purpose. Each piece in our collection — whether it’s an Italian leather handbag or a delicate girls’ dress from Little Ellar — begins with a question: Does this reflect the quiet elegance we stand for? While 90% of our goods are sourced directly from Italy, we also work with trusted artisans and independent ateliers across Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Germany, Lithuania, Morocco, Monaco, Turkey, and Sweden. Every partner is chosen for their commitment to quality, ethics, and craftsmanship.

Why Italy Is Our Foundation

Italy is synonymous with leather — and for good reason. From the tanneries of Tuscany to the family-run leather workshops of Veneto, our handbags come from heritage makers who still cut and stitch by hand. The result? A bag that tells a story before you even carry it.

Expanding Elegance Across Europe

For our women’s clothing and Little Ellar collections, we look beyond borders — sourcing soft cotton dresses from Spain, tailored layers from Portugal, and hand-detailed pieces from boutique studios in Belgium and Germany. These styles are not mass-produced — they are selected for women and girls who value timeless fashion over fleeting trends.

Curated Abroad, Delivered from the U.S.

Although we source our pieces from across Europe, every order ships directly from our California-based online store. That means no international delays and no hidden customs fees — just fast, secure delivery from our hands to yours.
