Meraki Heritage was founded by a Colombian Claudia Guevara in 2021. Meraki, a modern Greek word, is often used to describe doing something with soul, creativity, or love. Heritage signifies a person's unique, inherited sense of family identity: the values, traditions, culture, and artifacts handed down by previous generations. The brand aims to bring new, innovative, and exciting products and bring them in a sustainable way, whilst maintaining the cultural & artisanal heritage of its partners in South America.

From the beginning, as a Colombian, Claudia decided to have her country not only as a source of inspiration but also as a source of production. All materials found in her current pieces are locally sourced from Colombia and conflict-free. The artisans we work with possess the exemplary practices of sustainability, because they have knowledge of how to take advantage of natural resources and how these processes are intertwined with the environment.
