The Sak was born in 1989 when childhood friends Mark Talucci and Todd Elliott left their mundane corporate jobs to follow their dream of discovering new treasures and travelling the world.During a trip to Bali, Indonesia, they decided to start a business importing their “found treasures†from overseas to their hometown of San Francisco.
