Our Story

 

We believe in crafting products with a story & a soul to embellish your home. 

Our vision is to create home goods made from exceptional materials and the ancestral craftsmanship of artisan communities from the Andes. By telling the origin and story behind our collections, we want to highlight these cultures and help support a fair trade initiative. 

The idea behind Art Andina came from the desire to develop my passion for design while showcasing the crafts of the Andes, land of my maternal origins. Paired with the desire to reconcile my new family life and our passion for travel, I embarked on this adventure.

With this crazy little idea in mind, I flew to Ecuador to realize the project in 2018. Once there, I traveled to the native community of Otavalo, known for its weaving expertise. 
Through my meetings with the artisans and our new partnerships, we developped a shared vision and Art Andina was born !

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey !
