THE HARNESSED CONCEPT...
Harnessed was born from a vision: to celebrate and enhance authentic craftsmanship. Rooted in the tradition of artisanal excellence, each creation is entirely handcrafted in collaboration with artisans, artists, and designers who preserve and reinterpret techniques passed down through generations.
Harnessed is a platform for creative dialogue. By bringing together diverse talents and perspectives, the brand fosters a space where craftsmanship meets artistic expression, giving life to unique pieces that carry both heritage and innovation.
Blending tradition with a contemporary vision, Harnessed transforms fashion into a powerful medium of expression. Each piece is part of a broader narrative - one that celebrates authenticity, creativity, and the enduring value of true craftsmanship. Every gesture, every cut, every finish embodies a commitment to quality and an uncompromising attention to detail.
Designed for those who are unafraid to express their individuality, Harnessed creates accessories that go beyond function, becoming symbols of a conscious, free, and deeply personal aesthetic.
OUR MATERIALS
For us at Harnessed, the choice of natural materials is first and foremost a matter of quality. We focus on materials that offer an authentic and natural feel, and we do not use synthetic materials and plastic.
CHOUETTE® - Our collection of harnesses, chokers and cuffs
Our line Chouette® is born from a meeting: an artisan who has been working in Milano leather goods for over 30 years, with a passion for fine leathers, a refined sense of shape, and meticulous attention to detail that defines the uniqueness of each creation, and a nonconformist and imaginative designer, who began her journey in an Italian Haute Couture Maison, specialized in the world of leather goods and footwear. They begin to collaborate, exchange ideas, and share experiences.
The result of this collaboration is a leather collection that goes beyond the pure aesthetic. It speaks of playfulness and creativity, while expressing a strong sense of style and identity. Every piece is conceived as a unique object - designed to endure over time and to accompany those who recognize in quality not just a standard, but a way of life.
Thus, this new line is born, inspired by sensuality - by what is fulfilling - an expression of elegance, refinement, luxury, and pleasure.
Chouette® is a registered trademark.
MERCURIO MASCHERE - Our exclusive collection of leather masks
The Mercurio Maschere project was born from the intersection of master craftsmanship and the soul of the theatre.
This union took shape in 2021, as the world was emerging from the pandemic. In Milan, a historic artisanal leather goods company, San Marco, crossed paths with Zorba Officine Creative - a theatrical atelier led by the renowned master mask maker Andrea Cavarra. This collaboration felt like "love at first sight."
These two worlds immediately began to converge, blending the technical expertise and rare, precious leathers of high-fashion leatherworking with the artistic mastery and traditional techniques of the theatrical world.
The Vision
The goal was to create masks that honor the traditional methods and refined aesthetics of the Commedia dell’Arte, while enriching them with the elegance of modern leather goods and the expressive power of special textures.
The Result
The outcome is a collection of one-of-a-kind pieces, unique in both form and essence. These masks exist at the crossroads of fine art and artisanal excellence. Powerful and evocative, they embody a seamless blend of centuries-old tradition and contemporary innovation.
Each mask is a unique piece; each piece tells a story. And every story is a mask to be worn, allowing us to perform the grand spectacle of life.
