What is the name of Bottega Veneta’s woven leather technique?

Intrecciato is the name of Bottega Veneta’s woven leather technique.

The technique involves weaving narrow strips of leather into a regular interlaced pattern. Bottega Veneta adopted it as a central design language, particularly for handbags and small leather goods. The method can create a supple surface while also giving the material a distinctive visual texture.

Bottega Veneta is known for emphasizing its craftsmanship and for using recognizable construction rather than placing a large external logo on many products. Intrecciato became one of the clearest ways to identify the house’s work without relying on prominent branding.

The term is sometimes mixed up with names of other luxury materials. Saffiano is associated with Prada’s crosshatched leather, Goyardine with Goyard’s coated canvas, and Epi with Louis Vuitton’s textured leather. Intrecciato specifically describes Bottega Veneta’s interwoven leather construction.
