Tocco Toscano, meaning “Touch of Tuscany”, originated in Florence, Italy. As a brand that’s been making bags and accessories for nearly 40 years, we’ve embodied the experience of functional luxury through designs that are practical, beautiful and relevant to you.

Our mission is to create products that suit your everyday needs so you can live easier, and carry fashionably. We’ll carry everything you need and have them exactly where you need them, so you’re free to go about being you.

Where style meets function

Tocco Toscano represents a concoction of tradition and modernity, where quality craftsmanship and timeless designs combine with functional elements made uniquely for you

Our Values

Our products are functional and built to last. They look great but work even better; that’s the beauty of what we do—we think about how you go about your day and create different products for different occasions.

Our Heritage

At Tocco Toscano, we bridge the old and the new. Founded in 1987, we’ve evolved with the times while paying tribute to family traditions that began with our resilient founder, James Lor.

Our Founder

James Lor first countered the basics of leather production such as cutting, stitching and embossing through a rehabilitation program that required him to bind leather bibles. 

When interest developed into passion, he solved to leave a troubled past by starting a business in leather craftsmanship - he purchased leather and metal bucklets to product his own belts and sold them door-to-door. Upon convicing department stores to carry them, he created more complex goods such as bags and wallets.

Our Roots

TOSCANO was initially owned by Mr Stefano who ran a small workshop in Florence, Italy. Deeply inspired by the intricate techniques and attention to detail that other craftsmen exhibited, he felt the desire to introduce these quality products to Asian consumers.

In the mid-1990s, after initially granting James with licensing rights, Stefano sold the trademark - TOSCANO was then rebranded as TOCCO TOSCANO

Early Years

We launched in various department stores throughout Singapore in 1987, with products that maintained the original quality and essence of TOSCANO.

Over the next few years, several iconic collections including DURAN (1998), Breeze (1990) and Eodia (1995) was released. With a strong focus on department store sales, we grew from strength to strength.

 

 

Present Day

Today, we are led by second generation entrepreneur Joseph Lor. With a newfound focus on growing our online presence and a young diverse team at the forefront, our mission is to create products that suit your everyday needs so you can live easier, and carry fashionably.

 

Tocco Toscano products are currently designed in Singapore and made in Guangzhou, China.
