Crafted Slowly in Portugal
Every VIA I is shaped by hand - from the first cut of leather to the final polish. This is where slow luxury takes form.
"Via Essenza was born from a desire to return to what is essential, to create fewer objects, but made with care, intention, and time." - Catarina, Founder

Slow Luxury
We reject the the rhythm of fast fashion. We refuse to participate in waste.
Every piece is made to last - not seasons, but decades. Built with intention. Crafted with care.
This is slow luxury. This is what endures.
A note from the Founder
Via Essenza was born in a quieter chapter of my life - a moment where motherhood slowed my pace and sharpened my sense of what truly endures.
Designing became a way to honor that stillness.
To create fewer pieces, made with intention.
Objects shaped by patience, presence, and the beauty found in everyday rituals.
Each VIA begins here, at my table, in the life I am building - crafted slowly, meant to accompany you for years to come.
