Simétrie
Simétrie was born out of a series of bag making workshops, led by Simétrie founder Simone. These workshops set out to help women develop new skills, financial independence and a renewed sense of purpose. Simétrie products are made in-house by Simone with her small team and nearby in Ballarat. Their leathers are sustainably sourced, which includes wild Australian kangaroo leather and bovine leather that would otherwise be a wasted product of the beef industry. The love from which this project was born and the attention to detail evident in Simone's sourcing of materials, translates into the design and craft of all Simétrie products. They are truly stunning and truly special.
