NAEITA
NAEITA is a design brand founded by Nicole Passarella, based in New York City. Nicole is a practicing architect at Snohetta and brings to NAEITA a keen sense of detail and form.
NAEITA supports a slow fashion philosophy. There are no seasons to the collections, but rather each piece is designed to be timeless and quality is a top priority. The 2022 collection is the result of a year-long design development in collaboration with expert artisans from a fine-craft leather manufacturer in Italy.

The Circle Bag is a bucket that takes inspiration from the shapes of ceramics, for this reason it is made of soft padded leather with seams that create rounded shapes. The handle is made of regenerated resin so each handle will be different from the other. An adjustable shoulder strap is included for added versatility.
