Our Story · New York

Luxury, on Our Terms.

A designer’s vision. The expertise of world-class artisans. A belief that exceptional craftsmanship should be part of everyday life.

Our Beginning

She designed the bags. She couldn’t afford to carry them.

Founded in New York in 2016, PARISA WANG began with a contradiction: Parisa was designing luxury handbags she couldn’t afford herself.

To change that, she worked directly with the same ateliers trusted by leading luxury houses. Her purpose was clear: bring together distinctive design, exceptional craftsmanship, and thoughtful functionality—without the traditional designer markup.

Craftsmanship

Crafted to last.

Designed in New York. Handcrafted with our manufacturing partner in China, whose expertise spans more than 50 years.

Behind the craft

The expertise behind leading luxury houses.

Our manufacturing partner has produced for houses including Prada, Saint Laurent, Celine, and Miu Miu. Together, we bring our New York design vision to life—with craftsmanship and everyday function considered in every detail.

01

Original design. Developed in close partnership.

Our New York design team works directly with the atelier, refining proportion, construction, and function through each round of sampling.

02

Quality overseen across two continents.

Our in-house production and quality-control teams in China and the United States oversee materials, construction, and finish—from development through production.

Thoughtful materials · Crafted to last

Quality begins with the material.

We source our leathers from Leather Working Group Gold-rated tanneries. Each is selected for its feel, character, and suitability for the design.

We work in small batches, with select styles made to order. Our Materials & Care guide helps you look after the leather and finishes of your bag.
