What does “Made in Italy” mean?

“Made in Italy” is an indication of provenance regarding the origin of a product (Italian in that case). That means the product is entirely made in Italy, from design to work on paper, up to the finished product ready for sale. It represents creativity, quality, and Italian lifestyle in various sectors such as clothing, agro-food, mechanical automation, costume jewelry, silverware, furniture, leather goods, and the film industry.

Given that, this indication is regulated by definitions, rules, and legal protections to avoid counterfeiting.
