Hi~ 안녕하세요^^ (Annyeonghasaeyo!) I’m Ari, the founder of Kotelier ♡

Kotelier is a Korean stationery and gift shop based in Montréal, Canada, featuring thoughtfully curated finds from Korean illustrators, artists, and creative brands.

The name Kotelier is a blend of Korea and atelier (French for “studio”), reflecting my mission to share Korean stationery and the charming, creative work of Korean artists and illustrators with people around the world.

Living outside Korea, I couldn’t easily find the stickers and stationery from some of my favourite Korean artists, so I started Kotelier to share their charming work with others.

I personally discover and connect with artists and handpick the pieces you’ll find in the shop. From Korean stickers and stationery to letter sets, notebooks, cards and little gifts, everything is chosen to inspire, delight and add a touch of artistry to everyday life.

This little shop is a labour of love, and I’m so grateful for everyone who joins me in this passion. Whether you’re discovering Korean stationery for the first time or finding familiar favourites from your visits to Korea, I hope Kotelier brings a little wonder and charm to your day.

Thank you ^^ ♡
