OUR STORY

WE ARE PALMA CANARIA

In 2016, Mónica Arbeláez and Juliana Quintero, mother and daughter, passionate about design and fashion, and curious admirers of handcrafted work, decided to step out of their routines to create PALMA CANARIA—a unique and innovative accessory brand, 100% handmade in Colombia.

Mónica, a businesswoman with more than 20 years of experience in the banking sector, and Juliana, a business graduate with an emphasis in Marketing, joined forces to bring their creative visions to life and promote #LoveForWhatIsOurs.

Our Heritage

We are Palma Canaria

The Colombian tropics have long been the inspiration for some of Latin America's most beautiful handicrafts.

We reimagine this legacy to create designs that evoke stories from our culture through natural fibers from endemic plants such as Iraca palm, Bejuco, Esparto, and Copper Thread.

All pieces created by Palma Canaria have been consciously crafted by our artisans and selected to ensure they meet at least one of our eight key attributes: these attributes take into account animal, human, and environmental well-being and align with internationally recognized best practices in the fashion and beauty industry.

We are proud to work with artisan families in four different regions of Colombia, where we source the finest eco-friendly materials.

Every decision we make is a symbol of our commitment to defining the future of fashion. We believe that modern luxury is rediscovering artisanal traditions in a luxurious, fun, and versatile way.

We are a brand that appeals to women of all ages who want to feel that they have obtained a piece made exclusively for them.
