Dallapé
Italian accordion maker
Dallapé is one of the oldest and most storied Italian accordion makers, founded in 1876 by Mariano Dallapé in Stradella, Italy. Mariano Dallapé is widely credited with helping transform the simple organetto into the richer, more powerful accordion, and the family firm Fabbrica Armoniche Mariano Dallapé e Figlio became a worldwide symbol of the Italian accordion. The company remained in family hands across several generations.
