The Clea Collection — Where history is woven, and elegance is reborn.
Clea: Where Heritage Meets Modern Elegance
In a world where fashion is often fleeting, Clea stands as an ode to timeless beauty — a piece that whispers rather than shouts, crafted for the woman who values substance over spectacle.
A Legacy Woven in Silk and Cotton
At the heart of every Clea minaudière lies Kutnu, a rare and precious fabric handwoven in Gaziantep, Türkiye. Known for its shimmering luster and gentle texture, Kutnu has adorned the wardrobes of Ottoman sultans and courtiers for centuries. Each strand of silk and cotton intertwines in perfect harmony, creating a luminous satin weave that captures light — and history — with every movement.
In an age of machine production, Kutnu remains one of the few surviving handwoven textiles of Anatolia, requiring patience, precision, and artistry. Every meter of Kutnu tells the story of the craftsmen and women who have preserved this art for generations, honoring the Turkish heritage of handmade excellence.
The Art of Transformation
QIMU reimagines this heritage fabric for the modern world. With Clea, the brand transforms the delicacy of Kutnu into an architectural form — a sleek, sculptural minaudière that carries both elegance and quiet power.
The name itself, Clea — derived from the Greek word for “glory” and “fame” — evokes the luminosity and grace embodied by the piece. The design speaks in QIMU’s signature language of purity, geometry, and proportion.
A Testament to Craftsmanship
The Clea minaudière is meticulously handmade — its radiant Kutnu exterior complemented by a fully lined suede interior. A sculptural metallic clasp, engraved with the QIMU logo, crowns the piece with understated sophistication. Inside, a zipped pocket and two open compartments offer functionality without compromising form — the perfect home for your evening essentials.
Beyond its materiality, Clea represents the intersection of tradition and innovation, of ancient craftsmanship and contemporary design. It is a modern heirloom — meant to be held, cherished, and passed on.
The Spirit of QIMU
At QIMU, craftsmanship is not a process; it is a philosophy. Every collection is an exploration of form, emotion, and meaning. With Clea, this philosophy finds new expression — uniting Anatolia’s textile heritage with a global language of luxury.
Because true luxury is not loud — it is felt. It lives in the quiet confidence of materials made by hand, in the integrity of design, and in the stories that endure.
