Born and raised in the British colony of Hong Kong, Sylvia always knew she wanted to pursue a career in fashion. After she moved to Canada in the early 1990s, she got the chance to fulfill her dream -- Sylvia and her husband partnered with their long-time friends Jimmy and Florence Tam to form Bertotti Handbags in Toronto, Canada.

They unanimously chose the name “Soprano” for their top-of-the-line leather bags collection.

All Soprano leather bags are manufactured in the Tam’s family-owned factory in China, which has produced leather goods since 1967. All Soprano leather bags are designed in-house, here in Canada. The design team on the manufacturing floor skillfully transforms these original designs into the wonderful handbags that bear the Soprano name.

The Soprano line only uses first-grade quality, top grain leathers that are supple, lightweight and durable. Only the best hardware and other materials are adopted after thorough testing. Soprano designs are fashionable as well as functional, and tailored with impeccable workmanship.

Soprano Handbags is truly the realization of a Canadian dream for four young people who share a love for high quality fashion. They are, and will forever be, proudly Canadian.
