Designs your customers will ask for by name.
Balacona Studio supplies Islamic bookshops, schools, mosques and gift stores with personalised Arabic calligraphy prints, Ramadan calendars for children and wedding stationery, in English, Dutch, German and French editions, each with Arabic.
Who we are. Balacona Studio is a small design studio in Amsterdam. Every calligraphy design begins with us, every text is proofread before it is printed, and our retail sales run through the Etsy shop BalaconaStudio. For trade orders we prepare your bulk order as a custom Etsy listing, so payment and delivery stay protected inside Etsy.
