Our story

A woman in a black sleeveless top and shorts stands on a set of outdoor stairs painted with colorful classical-style illustrations, surrounded by historic beige stone buildings.

SICULI begins in Sicily, but our curiosity takes us further.

Across cultures and generations, extraordinary beauty has been shaped by human hands. In family workshops, on centuries-old looms, and through techniques passed from one generation to the next, artisans continue to create work that carries the knowledge and imagination of those who came before them.

We believe this artistry deserves to be discovered, celebrated, and preserved for generations to come.

Our journey takes us wherever we find the artistry and ornamental beauty that define the SICULI world. We seek out artisans who carry these traditions forward, enter their workshops, learn their techniques, and share the stories behind their creations. By connecting their work with new audiences, we help build a future for these traditions.

Through these discoveries, our own ornamental in-house collections, and pieces from the archive, we bring past and present into conversation, creating new ways to live with beauty shaped by generations.

SICULI is still unfolding, one workshop and one story at a time. Beginning online, with a vision for a place of its own—where artisans, objects, and people come together through discovery and shared experiences.

Our Founder

Sandra T. Finkelstein
Founder & Creative Director, SICULI

For Sandra, the path to SICULI began at the loom. Trained as an artisan in textile design and weaving, she began her career creating fashion collections for ateliers in Biella and Prato, Italy. That understanding of material, process, and the hand behind an object shaped decades of work with makers in 20 countries. Along the way, she pioneered responsible, small-batch, and made-on-demand brands.

Through weaving, product development, and brand building, the same question kept surfacing: what gives an object meaning, integrity, and a reason to exist? The answer kept leading her back to the person, the place, and the context that shaped it.

In Sicily, she found artisans still working by hand, the same way they have for generations. Sandra continues to travel to workshops, building relationships with artisans and earning their trust. SICULI brings those threads together—her understanding of craft, her experience developing products, and her instinct to discover, understand, and carry that story forward.

"The longer I spend with artisans, the more it becomes about the relationships, and the stories they trust me to share."
