The Founder & Designer
Based in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, women-owned Atelier Calla emerged from the imagination of Haitian entrepreneur Christelle C. Paul in 2007. Though she had a full-time job at the time, her mind was set to make this dream a reality. Creating original collections bi-annually and participating in local shows, she carved her way and made her name and reputation as a local designer and a reference for the horn and bone jewelry market in Haiti. In 2011, after the devastating earthquake, it was all or nothing and she opted for all and opened a full-time workshop October 10, 2011. Thanks to much support, this artisan group has had the opportunity to receive the tools to be relevant on the international market. Today with more than 30 artisans involved in the production, and they are one of the largest horn manufacturers in Haiti.
Our Partnership
At 2nd Story Goods, we have loved getting to work with Atelier Calla, and having the chance to develop a close relationship with Christelle, since 2017. Atelier Calla is the real deal not only when it comes to design, but also when it comes to providing reliable, meaningful work and benefits to their employees! We are honored to be one of their wholesale and retail partners that helps to get their products to the U.S. market!
