Behind The Brand
"We are makers of wares for nomads, homebodies and small folk".
Olli Ella is renowned for designing timeless products that are unlike any other. From a little wheeled trolley called the Luggy, to a house that you can hold, Olli Ella pieces bring a smile to faces and are loved through generations for their celebration of play. They use natural materials, sourced sustainably, and their focus is on craftsmanship and ethical production.
Born in London in 2010 as a kids décor brand, Olli Ella has grown to become a global lifestyle brand. Co-founded by sisters Chloe and Olivia, they draw inspiration from their nomadic childhoods spent travelling and their own broods. Today, the sisters live between Byron Bay, London and Los Angeles with their families, with these influences informing the relaxed, carefree aesthetic of Olli Ella pieces that are easily identified by their vintage-aesthetic, simple lines and use of natural materials.
HOLDIE FOLK
The cheerful inhabitants of Holdie land are always up for an adventure. Get to know these perfect little pocket-sized pals. These loveable, palm-sized folk will join you on some incredible adventures in to the world of imagination. They're cute, they're small, they're a little bit cheeky and they're ready to explore this wonderful world with you!
They might be small but they all have big personalities - each member of Holdie folk has their own story, like Hazel: the shyest of all the Holdie Folk, Hazel loves nothing more than snuggling up in a quiet corner with a great book and a dictionary. An avid reader and writer, Hazel is the Holdie Folk’s favourite storyteller although she is often asked by her friends to speak a little louder because her voice is so soft, they can’t always hear what she is saying!
Then there's Moss: Calm and easy going - that’s how Moss’s friends describe him. Moss loves exploring beautiful landscapes, tending to Holdie Land’s cactus garden and rock climbing. He always knows the best way to get from point A to point B.
