KAEIU

KAEIU is a NYC-based handbag brand that creates luxurious and highly functional styles. Designed by Maria Lee-Heller, her journey to motherhood marked by infertility trials, served as the inspiration behind the creation of the KAEIU bag. Recognizing life's multifaceted nature, Maria designs bags to seamlessly traverse parenthood, careers, travels, and leisure, envisioning a single bag as a partner in life’s journey. Leather was intentionally chosen as the core material — a nod to its timeless beauty, durability, and the graceful way it weathers the passage of time. Like life itself, leather molds into a unique expression shaped by experiences. 1% of all proceeds go to a charitable donation, selected quarterly.
