Fusing the elements of a modern laptop bag with the appeal of a timeless leather briefcase, the Elegant is the go-to choice for a professional who takes his work and his style seriously.
The Elegant exhibits a slim profile and a smart appearance thanks to the premium full-grain vegetable-tanned cow leather used in its construction. Notice absolute attention to detail in every element—the overall image, the meticulous stitching, the sturdy hardware, and interior lining made from the highest quality cotton canvas. The well-built handles allow you to comfortably carry the bag throughout the day. For a more casual effect, opt for the adjustable shoulder strap. Despite its slimline look, the Elegant features a spacious interior designed to keep all your business items well-organized. Additionally, a large back pocket offers quick access to essentials.
When ordering from us, you’ll receive everything ready to be gifted. Our bags come with a handmade cotton dust bag. Please use it when storing the bag to help the leather remain in good condition and develop a rich patina over time. Additionally, all smaller items such as wallets and belts will arrive beautifully wrapped in tissue paper, a gift box, and a gift bag.

We offer product personalization—embossing and engraving—for most of our leather accessories. Add initials, names, dates, logos, phrases, or personal messages to create a truly thoughtful and one of a kind gift of sentimental value that can be cherished for years to come.
You’ll find personalization options on the product page of your chosen item. Select embossing or laser engraving before checkout, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Once your order is placed, we'll promptly send an email featuring a visual representation of the engraving for your selected product, ensuring it meets your expectations before the personalization process begins.
Vegetable-tanned leather may vary slightly in texture and color across different parts or products, and, in some cases, include small, occasional scars, inherent to the hide's natural surface. These marks are not defects but rather are indicative of authenticity, highlighting the material's quality and our commitment to natural beauty. Below, you'll find illustrations that showcase these features. If you prefer a more uniform look, there are cheaper alternatives available that are extensively chemically treated for consistency. However, they lack the longevity and evolving rich patina that our vegetable-tanned leather offers.
To preserve these distinctive features and ensure your leather accessory ages gracefully, we recommend treating it once a month with our Premium Leather Cream. This regular maintenance not only enhances the longevity of your accessory but also complements the unique characteristics of vegetable-tanned leather.
We offer free worldwide express shipping on all orders over $100.

As Featured In
Made in Italy
It is not without reason that Italy is known as the land of true artisans. All our products are made in Florence and Northern Italy in family-owned studios, where the tradition of leather craftsmanship has been passed down generations. Believing that our customers deserve the best and showing our appreciation for this masterful heritage craft, we are ready to pay honest production prices for the high-quality work being put into each product.
Certified Italian Vegetable-Tanned Leather
Von Baer products are crafted using premium vegetable-tanned Italian leather. Because we believe in the importance of sustainability, each of our product comes with a certificate of leather origin. The trademark Pelle Conciata al Vegetale in Toscana (Tuscan Vegetable-Tanned Leather) guarantees the quality and origin of the leather. It encompasses not just the material itself but also how it has been treated.
Fine Italian Cotton Lining
We ensure that all our products are beautiful inside and out. We use natural thick and robust Italian cotton canvas lining. Unlike synthetic materials, it is sustainable and pleasant to touch. Moreover, the cotton lining is long-lasting thanks to the well-known Italian grasp of impeccable textile manufacturing. Due to this, an ordinary fabric like cotton is turned into something that will serve well to those who expect the highest quality.
Japanese YKK Zippers
Your product is only as good as its weakest link. You don’t want to throw away your bag after a couple of months of use simply because the zipper didn’t hold up. That’s why we only use the renowned YKK zippers for our products.
Sustainability
When choosing Von Baer products, you can be sure that you’re not only getting something stylish and high quality but are also supporting a sustainable business and traditional craftsmanship. We do our business in a way that supports local communities and does not harm the planet.

I hope the bag doesn't have a strange odor like most of the regular leather bags?
Our bags have a slight fresh leather scent, nothing synthetic or unnatural.
-
Can a medium-sized camera fit in the briefcase?
Yes, if the lens and camera are separate. However, in general, this bag is not meant for carrying a camera. For this purpose it is better to use our multifunctional 10X bag: https://vonbaer.com/products/10x-leather-laptop-travel-bag

How sturdy are the hardware joiners that attach the strap to the bag? The ones on my old bags snapped early on so I couldn't use the bags with their straps.
We use quality hardware on our bags. We make sure our bags and their hardware are durable and long-lasting.
-
What is the weight of the bag
The weight of the bag is 2.4 Lbs / 1.1 Kg

is there a local dealer
We sell only online. If we had stockists or resellers, the prices would be up to 3 times higher.
