Florence Album Makers



We met with two album makers here in Florence, Stefano Sternini of Lilivm leather and paper who was very helpful and the team at Pineider who also carry an impressive range of more traditional albums.
We had heard about Pineider through another album maker we met in Milano whose albums were not suitable. He pointed us in the right direction of Pineider’s albums and they were beautiful and a style we have not seen in Australia. The albums are so different here that it has made the trip so worthwhile. The new fashionable colours that were shown to us were incredible and the leather is so soft. In Australia it is mostly cow leather or worse vinyl but here in Italy they use lamb so it is much more softer.
