Woven leather and no logo. The other quiet house on a promenade that mostly is not.

The retail promenade at Astir Marina: a run of glass shopfronts under a long white canopy, Karkalis and Alos among them.

Commercial relationship

Bottega Veneta holds a unit on the marina promenade. The house was founded in Vicenza in 1966 and built its name on intrecciato — leather cut into strips and woven, originally because the sewing machines of the day could not handle the hides.

The unbranded end of the promenade

There are two shops here selling to a customer who does not want to be identified across a terrace: this one and Loro Piana. Everything else on the promenade is legible at fifty metres, by design.

Which of those two customers you are is a real question on this coast, and the piece on the fading logo is the longer version of it.

The pillar file has the rest.

An introduction is worth more than a list

In this category the name of a shop is close to useless. The name of a person inside it is not. Tell us what you are actually trying to buy and we will point you at the door and, where we can, at the person behind it.

  • 01 A human reads it. Always.
  • 02 We name names, and we say why.
  • 03 Any commercial relationship is disclosed up front.
  • 04 Nothing you send us is sold to anyone.

Where we earn a referral fee we say so on the page it appears. Nothing in the editorial rankings is for sale. Read the charter.

What is this about?

We reply within one working day. Your details are never sold or passed on without your say-so.

Every Thursday

The List

What opened, what closed, what quietly changed hands, and the one thing worth your Saturday. Read by roughly four hundred people who live between Alimos and Sounio, and by the people who advise them.
