About us
Welcome to Bareke by Pia Tapia
In the heart of lush Colombia, more than a decade ago, Bareke by Pia Tapia was born. We are a unique blend of tradition and sustainable luxury, creating exclusive handbags and accessories that are more than just fashion items—they are small works of art, filled with bold textures and vibrant colors.
Our founders were inspired by the rich biodiversity of Colombia and Latin America, as well as the strength and grace of women. They sought to create timeless pieces that have a social, environmental, and cultural impact. Since our inception, we have been dedicated to empowering indigenous communities by working closely with talented artisans. We don't just design; we teach and collaborate, generating economic and social development directly within these communities. This partnership elevates their ancestral art to new heights.
Bareke by Pia Tapia invites luxury lovers to embrace a more meaningful and enriching lifestyle. We offer a timeless experience that goes beyond aesthetics, making you shine like an authentic gem. Each piece is a canvas that embodies centuries of wisdom, self-love, and passion for nature and our roots. These treasures serve as powerful anchors in your daily life, reflecting the essence of who you are.
Our Value Proposition
At Bareke, we craft luxury with purpose. Our exclusive bags and accessories are works of art that capture the essence of who you are and what you wish to project. Bold textures and vibrant colors intertwine in unusual and versatile shapes, bestowing an exceptional character and unique personality to each piece. The origins of our designs offer you love in motion, breathing life into all the powerful stories you build.
Our Philosophy
Bareke represents conscious elegance, inviting luxury lovers to embrace a purposeful and enriching way of life. Our bags and accessories are developed with sustainable and ethical materials. We believe in the transformative power of fashion to drive change and improve the lives of the women who carry our pieces, as well as those who are part of the communities that weave and manufacture them.
Social, Environmental, and Cultural Sustainability
At Bareke by Pia Tapia, our handbags and accessories are inspired by the power of real women and are 90% handcrafted by indigenous women and artisans from Colombia. From young women and single mothers to elderly weavers, they imprint their art and ancestral wisdom into each piece, weaving them with love and dedication.
Our materials are sustainably and ethically sourced. We are dedicated to empowering indigenous communities by working hand in hand with over 60 talented artisans. We not only design but also teach, generating economic and social development directly within these communities.
We believe in the transformative power of fashion to drive change, improving the lives of the women who carry each piece, as well as the people who manufacture them. This allows us to embrace our inner beauty and create a reflection of who we are and what we want to project.
