Available in a Variety of Materials and Colors for Any Occasion

The name "Olympia" is inspired by the Teatro Olimpico, a theater in Vicenza, Italy, designed by the renowned Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. All bags are handmade, featuring Bottega Veneta's signature Intrecciato weave on the body. The design is characterized by its flap silhouette with a metal chain and leather shoulder strap.

Three types of items are available. The Intrecciato Nappa Olympia Bag showcases the supple charm of the Intrecciato weave. It comes in seven colors: Aubergine, Burned Red, Nero, New Light Grey, Rosa Shock, Signal Blue, and Sun. The Intrecciato Tobe Olympia Bag is distinguished by its three-dimensional embellishment that resembles feathers. It is available in Ardoise, Aubergine, Mist, and Nero.

The Intrecciato Tobe Ayers Olympia, slightly smaller than the other versions, is offered in Mist (greyish white), Nero (black), New Chartreuse (a light, bright yellow-green), New Light Grey (a light, glossy grey), Rosa Shock (shocking pink), Signal Blue (bright blue), and Sun (light orange).
