Armèlle

What Armèlle does

Armèlle is a private, founder-operated luxury leather accessories brand headquartered in Son Ferriol, Illes Balears, Spain, owned by sole proprietor Dagmar Riefler. The company designs and sells handcrafted leather gloves, with a particular focus on fingerless gloves positioned as architectural statement accessories for fashion-conscious women and style-conscious men. The product portfolio spans named models (June, Eva, Lucia, Palermo, Audrey, Luce, Giorno, Perla, plus a men's line and an archive sale), each offered in multiple colorways and embellished with hand-applied rhinestones, chains, buckles, and pearl details; unit prices range from approximately €64.46 (sale) to €144.63 (full price). Manufacturing is conducted in small batches through carefully selected workshops across Europe, with each pair undergoing more than 20 individual handcrafted steps.

The company's commercial and technology stack is deliberately lean: a WooCommerce storefront at myarmelle.com with SiteGround hosting and payment processing via WooPayments/Stripe (PCI Service Provider Level 1), accepting cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna, and bank transfer. The site is available in English, Spanish, and German, with standard shipping within the EU at €7 (4–6 business days) and international shipping at €20 (7–10 business days). There is no mobile app, no public API or SDK, and no disclosed AI capabilities; brand awareness is driven by organic social channels (Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube), an editorial blog, and a newsletter, with a prior editorial placement in Tatler Magazine UK (February 2021).

Armèlle generates revenue entirely through direct-to-consumer one-time-purchase e-commerce sales; there is no wholesale, B2B, subscription, or licensing stream disclosed, and no institutional funding, M&A activity, or management changes. The entity has no parent company, no subsidiaries, and a headcount in the 11–50 band, with the latest observable strategic action being the launch of the Spring Summer 2026 collection in January 2026.
