About us
Colombian artisan products in Barcelona
We are a Colombian-Catalan couple of importers and marketer of Colombian handicrafts in Spain, especially.
The reason for our name, LA FLOR DE CALI, is in the origins of one of our founders. The flower and the logo in honor of the orchid (Catleya trianae), the national flower of Colombia, and Cali for the city of said founder.
We import unique models, preserving the designation of origin that makes them exclusive items. We contact directly with the artisans producers of all ethnic groups, thus respecting their culture, having a better knowledge of them and without intermediaries.
In the three years that we have had experience, we have worked with the Wayuu, Arhuaca and Embera Katio culture, and our future expectation is to promote the artisan work of other regions of Colombia.
Being an importing company of Colombian handicrafts, we recognize the great work that each piece has, each one full of love, detail, dedication, perseverance and years of experience, where the skill of the craftsman and the properties of the materials used play the most important role. . This becomes, little by little, an almost magical ritual inherited from generation to generation from our indigenous ancestors.
Wool, thread, fique, stones, metals, wood, play with each other, resulting in products as unique and valuable as the process itself. This magical ritual begins with the material and passes through the hands of the artisans, and then ends and becomes an object that will accompany its owner every day to beautify it, in the form of an object full of magic, love and a unique value: the handmade value
