Caina
ABOUT US
At Caina, we believe that a woman carries much more than what she carries in her hands. She carries responsibilities, choices, affections, achievements and dreams. She lives between what is urgent and what is essential. And yet, she finds a way to remain elegant, present and whole.
Our bags are designed to accompany that woman - not to define her, but to serve her with discretion, functionality and beauty. Designed to fit naturally into her routine, they adapt to her rhythm, her transitions and her unique way of being in the world.
Caina was born out of the desire to rescue a real and conscious femininity. We believe that delicacy is not fragility, and that taking care of details is also a form of strength. We bring to the present values that are often forgotten: care, lightness, comfort and beauty that welcomes, without the need for ostentation.
Each piece reflects this commitment. To quality, to design that stands the test of time, and to the woman who chooses with intention. Because for us, style is more than appearance: it's presence, it's coherence, it's meaning.
Se é assim que se revê, esta marca também é sua.
Story
Origin of the name
“Caina” is a word that carries an old memory, one of those that stay in a warm place in the heart. When she was little, the founder, Catarina Melo, stumbled over her own name and, with the sweetness of childhood, called herself “Caina”. It was the way she unknowingly began to build her identity in the world. Years later, this memory took on a new meaning: it became the name of a brand that is also born of intimacy, truth and the desire to be whole without having to be perfect. “Caina” is thus a piece of history transformed into presence - a tribute to what is simple, heartfelt and deeply ours.
Origin of the Icon
The Caina icon was born out of a simple but tender gesture: affection for Wendy, the dog owned by founders Catarina and Alexandre Melo. An everyday companion, Wendy is an affectionate and calm presence - a constant inspiration. The icon's soft lines were drawn from her long ears, which are always on the move, as if they were dancing to the rhythm of the world with lightness and attention. More than an aesthetic detail, this feature carries a memory, an emotional bond. It's a way of keeping close what touches us in a discreet but profound way. Just like the brand, the icon holds a real story - made up of affection, presence and meaning.
