Bamboo Jungle pebbled leather shoulder tote bag.

In the 1930s and '40s, Gucci consolidated its identity, introducing distinctive elements such as the diamond pattern and the famous green-red-green stripe, inspired by the equestrian world. During the period of wartime restrictions, the brand demonstrated great creativity by using alternative materials like hemp, giving rise to iconic products.

In the post-war era, the company grew rapidly, expanding into international markets. In the 1950s and '60s, Gucci became a symbol of the international jet set, winning over Hollywood stars and influential personalities. Legendary models such as the Bamboo bag and the horsebit loafer were born, which remain emblems of the maison today.

After the death of Guccio Gucci in 1953, management passed to his sons, but in the 1970s and '80s, family tensions and questionable strategies led the brand into a period of decline. The turning point came in the '90s with the arrival of new managers and the creative direction of Tom Ford, who relaunched Gucci with a sensual, modern, and provocative style.

In 1999, the group became part of Kering, consolidating its position in the global luxury landscape. In the following years, under the creative leadership of Alessandro Michele, Gucci reinvented itself once again, focusing on an eclectic and contemporary aesthetic.
