Curated Import & Distribution from Taiwan

Independent Taiwanese design. Curated for North America.

Kaiora curates, imports, and distributes paintings, sculpture, jewelry, and furniture from independent Taiwanese studios — through curated retail and wholesale, across North America.

Every piece on Kaiora is sourced and imported directly from independent studios in Taiwan. We handle the rest — customs, logistics, retail, and wholesale distribution.

Why Kaiora

What makes this different.

Direct from the artist.

We work with each studio directly — not through a marketplace, not through a middleman.

Handled, not outsourced.

Shipping, customs, and delivery are managed end-to-end, so nothing gets lost between Taiwan and your door.

Chosen, not stocked.

We take on a small number of artists at a time. If it's on Kaiora, someone chose it deliberately.

Built for the long term.

We work as a long-term import and distribution partner, not a one-time buyer.

Our Story

Why Kaiora exists

Kaiora started with a simple observation: Taiwan has one of the most active independent design scenes in Asia, and almost none of it reaches North America. We started Kaiora to close that gap — curating, importing, and distributing it, one studio at a time.
