About the Brand
About
Isla Capricho Homeware is a design-forward homeware brand inspired by the vibrant spirit of island living. Founded by three sisters and rooted in their Colombian heritage, the brand blends artisanal craftsmanship with timeless design to create tableware and decor that elevate everyday moments. From hand-embroidered, machine-washable linens to hand-painted ceramics, each piece is made to be both beautiful and practical—crafted for real life and meant to be used, enjoyed, and gathered around daily.
Founding Story
Isla Capricho Homeware was born from three sisters’ shared love of hosting and their deep connection to their family’s island home off the coast of Cartagena, Colombia. Surrounded by vibrant tables, fresh food, and long, laughter-filled meals, they came to cherish the beauty of gathering—and noticed a gap in the market for high-quality, design-forward homeware that was both special and meant to be used every day. Inspired by those island memories and driven by a desire to make beautiful things accessible, they launched Isla Capricho: a brand rooted in joy, craftsmanship, and the art of living well.
