Our Story

“We  love Coffee and Art and supporting Artisan producers.”

The Founder

We're John and Krystle, and we're obsessed with coffee and art. We are passionate about helping artisanal art and coffee producers. That's why we decided to create a platform to show case and sale artisan produced coffee and hand-crafted art pieces and coffee.


We partner with local coffee cooperatives who adhere to environmental conservation, organic coffee farming and, fair trade practices.


We source our art pieces from individual artists and offer them a platform to sale their art for the prices they deem equivalent to their effort.

Let's Work Together

“Meet our Artists”

I’m Luke Wandera, an abstract artist from Uganda inspired by my culture and surroundings. My art uses bold colors and forms to express emotions and universal themes. I aspire to become a leading abstract artist, sharing Ugandan contemporary art worldwide and inspiring others through creativity and vision.

Fair trade

The Nino ladies made it a core principle to use only 100% repurposed leather. That way old leather shoes and clothes get their newfound glory, and the animal based resource is used in a much more responsible way.

Environmeental sustainability

When you buy a pair of Nino shoes or a handbag, you'll get it delivered in a paper-only packaging. We stopped using plastic based shipping materials back in 2015, and we're proud of it.

organic

Nino's main factory - the one where 85% of the brand's collection is manufactured - is located at the heart of Milan's industrial area. The factory includes all level of production under the same roof, to minimize Nino's environmental footprint.

Welcoming Local Artistsans

Nino's final designs in each collection are the result of a collaborative effort between numerous local Milan and Florence artists. Each of these brings their own x factor into the mix, making the Nino brand truly unique.
