Papalla Nuna was born from a deep passion for sharing the artistry and heritage of small artisans from around the world with the British public. The name “Papalla Nuna,” inspired by the rich cultural traditions of Ecuador, reflects our commitment to celebrating the stories, craftsmanship, and creativity of independent makers.

Our Artisan Collection
We take pride in offering a curated selection of artisan-made goods that embody both quality and cultural significance. One of our signature products is our range of luxurious alpaca wool ponchos, handmade by skilled artisans in Ecuador. These ponchos are crafted with care using traditional techniques, showcasing the exceptional softness, warmth, and durability of alpaca wool—a sustainable and ethically sourced material.

In addition to our ponchos, we work with talented artisans to bring unique, handcrafted items such as:

• Handwoven scarves and shawls

• Sustainable accessories

• Decorative homeware pieces

• Ethically made jewellery

Each piece tells a story of heritage and craftsmanship, bridging the gap between global traditions and the British love for unique, high-quality products.

Papalla Nuna Events
As our mission evolved, we expanded into hosting craft fairs and workshops to bring the joy of DIY art and handmade goods to local communities in the UK. At Papalla Nuna Events, we organise vibrant fairs and hands-on workshops where artisans can showcase their talents, share their skills, and connect directly with customers.

We hold our events at prominent venues such as The Forum, Norwich, creating a space where visitors can discover beautiful handmade items, learn new crafts, and support small businesses. From alpaca wool goods to unique crafts made by local and international artisans, we’re dedicated to celebrating creativity and community.
