About Label Qala

Qala: A Platform with Purpose

Qala is more than a brand—it is a movement dedicated to uplifting underprivileged, women, and differently-abled artisans whose remarkable talents often go unseen.

Across the world, countless creators weave beauty with their hands and pour stories into their craft, yet their voices remain unheard. Qala seeks out these hidden artisans, shining a light on their skills and providing them with a platform to share their artistry with the world. Every piece you discover through Qala is not only an object of beauty but also a symbol of resilience, empowerment, and hope.
What does 'Qala' mean ?

Qala stems from the Hindi word 'कला'. The word Qala (pronounced kuh-laa) represents the concept of 'art' in English.

In a broader sense, Qala is a term that embraces the entire spectrum of creative and aesthetic activities. It encompasses various forms of creative expression, including visual arts, performing arts, literature, and craftsmanship. 

Qala celebrates the expression of human imagination, skill, and emotion through diverse mediums such as painting, sculpture, dance, music, theater, and literature.
