The Signature Weave
Siena
A softly flared East–West basket gathered into a single rounded handle finished with a braided crown. The wide intrecciato gives it a supple, almost cushioned hand-feel that moulds to whatever it carries.
The silhouette that defines the house. Warm cognac, effortless with linen in summer and a camel coat in winter.
A Family in Leather Since 1936
A workshop, before it was a brand.
Our founder began as an apprentice leather trader in British Colombo in 1936. Four generations later, the same family runs the Chennai workshop of P.M. Rahamathulla & Co — and Isvena is its next chapter: the same hands, the same hides, and the same braid, presented for a global home.
