Behind each of our unique finds, there is a story of empowerment,
purpose and a rich culture worth sharing.
Colombia is one of the most diverse and electrifying countries on the planet. Despite the traumatic past, that for years hid some of the most breathtaking nature, stunning landscapes, and picturesque towns, Colombia’s vibrant and varied culture has stayed intact.
Now, the opportunity to foster peace and shape a brighter future for our country has come. NATAL Colombia wants to contribute by celebrating and sharing with the world our precious cultural legacy, working side by side with those who keep the Colombian crafting traditions alive.
About Natal Colombia
Natal is Colombia's open window to the world.
A glimpse into the essence of our country and its people. A showcase where the traditional crafts of Colombia find a space to be discovered and appreciated, despite the distance and language barriers.
Natal Colombia strives to promote and preserve our varied crafting knowledge by partnering with the finest artisans from across the Colombian territory.
We encourage them to tell their stories through unique objects, infused with the memories of their origins and the culture of their people.
