Studio
Studio Mano creates pieces that bring joy and a touch of playfulness to everyday spaces.
Every item is crafted by hand, one at a time. Whether they're unique pieces or made in small batches, there will be differences in shape, texture, and size. These variations, like changes in color and finish, enhance the individual character of each piece.

Mano
"Mano" is the nickname my little brother called me when we lived in Mexico. It comes from the Spanish word "hermano," which means brother.
This name not only holds a special meaning within my family, but it also carries the dual significance of representing "hand" in Spanish. Even now, my family still calls me Mano.
