About Ca’lyah was founded in Copenhagen by entrepreneur Nigel Majakari who was inspired by his work and experiences in the small rural workshops and family homes of Tamil wood furniture and stone carving artisans in South India. The name Ca´lyah is made up of two root words in ancient Sanskrit that relate to the ideas of “giftedness” and the “performance” of the gift or talent. These words were used in the context of traditional artisans working with stone and wood crafts, as well as musical and dance performances connected to religious traditions. The name embeds the value of artisanal craft in Ca´lyah´s DNA, and tells their story.
