Hello.
WE are Sieme Brand
Welcome to a new definition of luxury
Where Italian craftsmanship meets purpose. We rescue surplus leather and remnants from Tuscany’s luxury sector and transform it into one-of-a-kind handbags. Each piece is handwoven by skilled artisans, creating designs that are versatile, timeless, and entirely unique.
These are bags with stories, designed to make you feel as good as you look.
dID YOU KNOW?
Every year, up to 60% of materials are discarded during leather goods and shoe production in Italy. Most of this is high-quality, real leather!
This equals an average of 750 million kilos or 1.6 billion pounds per year.
At Sieme, we’re on a mission to rescue this genuine leather and keep it out of landfills. Through thoughtful design and ethical craftsmanship, we give these materials a second life, creating luxury accessories that redefine sustainable and “upcycled” fashion.

HOw it all started…
Hi, I’m Cassandra Kane, founder and designer of Sieme. After nearly a decade designing luxury fashion in New York, I moved to Florence, Italy, to learn the art of Italian handbag-making. It was here I witnessed the staggering amount of leather waste in the fashion industry—up to 60% discarded in pursuit of perfection.
This inspired me to create Sieme, a brand that repurposes leather excess into one-of-a-kind, artisan-made handbags, crafted by family-run factories in Tuscany.
With a commitment to preserving traditional techniques and supporting local artisans, we’re redefining what luxury can, and should be.
