Ricamificio Essemme

What does it mean to innovate when the market is uncertain? It means constantly improving your product, expanding your services, and making the client’s work easier by supporting them through every phase of production—not just by providing new creative ideas, but also by optimizing their concepts in terms ofcost and results. Ricamificio Essemme knows this well. The Tuscan  company has over thirty years of experience in embroidery on leather and fabric, and in recent years it has increasingly worked to provide brands with the most comprehensive service possible, going beyond its core specialization to embrace an all-inclusive approach. «For us, innovation also and above all means optimization», explains Tommaso Lai from the Style, Research and Development Office. «The goal is not to revolutionize the market, but to constantly improve it through the introduction of new stitches, special processes, new paddings, and creative-technical enhancements». This approach focuses on the continuous refinement of existing techniques, alongside the creation of ever-new and unique designs, which require the most advanced machinery and result in a truly distinctive product. The outcome is a collection of 60 pieces per year, complemented by ongoing custom work developed side by side with clients—helping them both in the creative development of prototypes and, when the idea comes from the brand, in perfecting it in terms of production timelines and costs. The company also goes beyond its core embroidery specialization: «We don’t stop at embroidery. The company has also internalized some of the typical tasks of leather goods manufacturing. In addition to our finishing and quality control departments, we now have a preparation department that handles leather cutting, splitting, and skiving». A comprehensive 360° service that puts the brand and its needs at the center, aiming to renew the market with practical, concrete solutions.
