Meaning and history
Piquadro was founded by Marco Palmieri in 1987 in Bologna, Italy. Initially producing leather goods for other brands, it launched its own label in 1998, with “Piquadro” symbolizing Palmieri and “pelletterie” (leather goods).
The brand opened its first store in Milan in 2000 and expanded internationally from 2004, with shops in cities like Moscow and Shanghai. It went public on the Italian Stock Exchange in 2007 and earned patents for innovative designs.
Today, Piquadro is a prominent Italian leather goods company, focusing on business and travel accessories. It operates globally, with a strong presence in Europe and Asia, emphasizing sustainability and quality craftsmanship.
1987 – Today
The Piquadro logo is slightly more diverse than the majority of the logos of fashion and accessories brands. For one, there is color. The design team has chosen a calm, yet mesmerizing shade of blue. On the one hand, it does not seem out of place on business items, from the other, it does not leave an impression of a dull business color.
The type has a unique touch. The glyphs are rounded, and even the horizontal bar of the “A” has been replaced by a curve.
The short yet pretty legible glyphs help to keep the logo compact, which is good for a manufacturer of luggage items.
