sense & sentiment

cipolla goods are special, yet practical, with a focus on repurposed materials and pride in craftsmanship.

keeping the future in mind, and also the past.

Wearables, bags, home goods & accessories. Unique and useful items that are made with care, with an emphasis on vintage and repurposed materials.
From finding materials, pre-washing, pattern-making, sewing, selling, packaging… it’s all done by me, Marina! When I’m sitting down at my favourite sewing machine I’m most content.
Everything is handcrafted here in my workshop in Brantford, Ontario, Canada.
I combine old & new into cipolla goods that are individual, functional, and conscientious. I prioritize the old & aim to create little to no waste, so I design with this in mind.
more about making
Because being conscientious about making just makes sense. Items have more thought behind them, and more meaning - in the present, from the past, and for the future.
