About Kaleya

Kaleya was born from a deep appreciation of handcrafted goods. We are endlessly inspired by the moment of pause and feeling of awe that we experience when holding a beautiful object someone made by hand. We believe that everyday objects matter; that the pieces you live with have the power to shape your days. Our aim is to make beautiful and functional artisan pieces from Zambia more accessible to the benefit of both makers and buyers. We are committed to sourcing ethically and operating in a way that ensures artisans truly benefit from the expansion of their wares into a broader market. Our founder, Jessica, has been based primarily in Zambia for almost 10 years. We know our artisan partners personally and work with them directly on design, production, and quality control. We prioritize the use of locally sourced materials, many of which are naturally regenerating or upcycled.Read their story
