We are a Mexican-French duo based in New York City, driven by a shared passion for design and craftsmanship. With a desire to create something truly refined, we founded Agavē - a brand that merges structure, balance, and effortless wearability. Each piece is crafted with precision and intention, designed to become an essential part of daily life.
Based in New York City, Agavē draws inspiration from the energy of its surroundings while remaining deeply connected to traditional craftsmanship. Our bags are handmade in León, Mexico, a city renowned for its leatherwork, where we collaborate with a small team of skilled artisans to bring each design to life. Every element, from the silhouette to the finishing touches, is carefully considered to ensure the highest level of refinement.
MATERIALS, WITHOUT COMPROMISE
A great bag begins with exceptional materials. At Agavē, we source an advanced cactus-based leather that offers the look and feel of traditional leather while introducing a new level of innovation. This material is supported by either 100% recycled cotton or cotton infused with cactus fibers, creating a structured yet supple foundation.
Beyond the bag, every detail is considered. Dust bags are crafted from 98% cotton, designed to protect and preserve. Handmade boxes reflect the same ethos of quality and longevity, meant to be kept, repurposed, and appreciated beyond their initial use.
