Who are we?

Crafted in New York. Inspired by Legacy.

Founded in 1982 by Pierre Dabagh, PIETRO was born from a simple belief — that exceptional craftsmanship should be accessible without compromise. From the heart of New York City, we continue to handcraft timeless leather pieces that celebrate confidence, individuality, and modern elegance.

From a Dream to a Legacy

PIETRO began as a small workshop led by Pierre Dabagh, who envisioned creating premium leather goods for everyday individuals who value both style and substance. What started in 1982 as a passion project has grown into one of the last remaining handbag manufacturers in New York City.

The Meaning Behind “PIETRO”

Derived from the Italian word for rock, PIETRO symbolizes resilience, elegance, and timeless beauty. Just like the individuals who carry our designs, each bag embodies confidence, sophistication, and strength—crafted to stand the test of time. A PIETRO bag isn’t just an accessory—it’s an expression of self. Our mission is to empower individuals to embrace their confidence and carry sophistication effortlessly. Every creation is made to move with you, tell your story, and become part of your journey.

A Family Brand, Rooted in New York

The Dabagh family’s story is woven into every stitch of PIETRO. From Pierre’s first sketches to today’s modern collections, each design reflects decades of passion and purpose. Our family continues to honor New York’s creative spirit—celebrating craftsmanship, community, and connection through every piece we make.

BAGS FOR BETTER

Founded in 1982 by Pierre Dabagh, PIETRO stands as a testament to the belief that exceptional quality can thrive in the heart of America. What began with a vision of producing top-tier leather goods at accessible prices has evolved into one of the last handbag manufacturers in New York City.

Today, Pierre’s children—Alex, Alexis, and Ashley—carry forward his legacy, rejuvenating the brand with a modern flair while embodying the spirit of “your designers’ designer.”
