Since 1846, this has been the most elegant leather store in Spain. Its gold medal-winning designers have always kept abreast of changing tastes and styles, but the inventory retains a timeless chic. The store sells luggage, handbags, and jackets for men and women (in leather or suede). Open Monday to Saturday 9:30am to 8:30pm. There's another branch with the same hours, and much of the same merchandise, at Serrano 26 (tel. 91-577-60-56).
