DOOZ: Luxury Leather Handbags Hand Made in New York City

Dooz is a luxury handbag house, hand-crafted in New York City, where art, architecture, and sustainability converge. Founded by designer Rachel Borghard, the collection transforms Italian calfskin, suede, and bespoke hardware into sculptural silhouettes that transcend an accessory to become objets d’art.

Rachel’s foundation as a fine artist, refined through her studies at Pratt Institute and in Copenhagen’s design ateliers, informs a multidisciplinary approach rooted in timeless craftsmanship and modern proportion. Her experience with Gabriela Hearst and heritage leather maker Ghurka deepened her pursuit of enduring design and impeccable detail.

The name Dooz, derived from the French ‘douze’, meaning twelve, symbolizes balance and completeness, a philosophy echoed in every piece. Each handbag is a study in harmony, at once timeless, contemporary, and uncompromisingly luxurious.
