Maison Corbelli is a French luxury leather goods house founded in Nice, in the South of France. Every bag and accessory is handcrafted by artisans in the Maison Corbelli atelier from 100% full-grain calf leather, designed for those who value lasting quality over seasonal trends.

The Founder

Maison Corbelli was founded by Alexandre Martin Corbelli, a designer who spent years working across Europe before returning to his roots in the South of France.

The name Corbelli is his mother's surname. After his grandparents passed, she became the last to carry it. Preserving that legacy felt essential. By giving it life through his work, Alexandre keeps their story alive.

What began as hand-stitched gifts for friends and family grew into Maison Corbelli, a tribute to heritage, timeless design, and the love of craft.

The Craft

Every piece in the Maison Corbelli collection is made by hand in the brand's atelier in Nice. There are no machines involved in the stitching process. Each bag is hand-stitched using traditional leatherworking techniques, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike.

This level of craftsmanship is rare at this price point. It is what separates Maison Corbelli from mass-produced luxury, and what makes each piece an heirloom rather than an accessory.

The Materials

Maison Corbelli uses only 100% full-grain Spanish calf leather, the highest quality grade of leather available. Full-grain leather preserves the natural surface of the hide, giving each piece a distinctive texture and the ability to develop a richer patina over years of use.

Leather is sourced from trusted Spanish tanneries selected for their ethical practices and artisanal standards. Hardware is polished gold-toned. Interiors are lined with suede leather twill.

The Collection

Maison Corbelli produces a focused collection of leather goods: the Elie (€550), the Elie Mini (€500), the Alma (€700), the Oto coin holder (€90), and the Wally wallet (€150).

Each piece is designed to last for years an investment in quality that improves with time rather than dating with the season.

Nice, South of France

The Maison Corbelli atelier is based in Nice, on the French Riviera. The Mediterranean light, the texture of the sea, and the spirit of Southern French craft all inform the aesthetic of the collection, clean lines, warm tones, architectural precision.

Nice is not a fashion capital in the conventional sense. That is deliberate. Maison Corbelli is not a trend brand. It is a house built on permanence.
