A More Original Expression of Mexico
Solano is a Mexican art and design company based in New Jersey, working with 36 artisan families and creative makers across different regions of Mexico.
Discover jewelry, accessories, fashion, home art, and gifts selected for their craftsmanship, character, and connection to Mexican culture.
Each piece is chosen to bring more color, artistry, and personality into what you wear, give, and bring home.
Mexican Artistry, Chosen with Intention
You are not here to find what is available everywhere.
You are here because you value pieces with personality; work shaped by skilled hands, creative experience, and a story of its own.
Solano brings together Mexican jewelry, fashion, accessories, and home art that feel expressive, refined, and personal. Some pieces carry techniques passed through generations. Others bring those traditions into modern life through new colors, forms, and functions.
What connects them is character.
Find Something That Feels Personal
A piece can do more than complete an outfit or fill a space.
It can bring back a memory, express something words cannot, or turn a gift into a moment someone remembers.
Maybe you are drawn to the color. The texture. The handmade details. Or simply the feeling of discovering something you would not find in an ordinary store.
Discover pieces that make what you wear, give, and bring home feel more personal.
Built Beyond the Expected
Solano was created to present a broader view of Mexican design; one that feels culturally rooted, contemporary, and alive.
Over the years, our pieces have been introduced through retail, museums, cultural events, trade shows, and fashion platforms.
Each experience has strengthened the same vision: to make remarkable Mexican craftsmanship easier to discover, appreciate, and bring into everyday life.

Created Across Mexico
Behind every piece is knowledge developed through practice: shaping, painting, embroidering, weaving, carving, or working materials by hand.
Solano works with a growing network of 36 artisan families and creative makers across different regions of Mexico, bringing together a rich range of materials, techniques, and artistic traditions.
These relationships are built through direct commercial partnerships, collaboration, and respect for skilled work.
The result is an evolving collection that connects Mexican creativity with customers, businesses, museums, and new markets in the United States.
Meet the Founder
Solano Exp was founded by Gabriela Tutalo, a Mexican-American entrepreneur born and raised in Puebla, Mexico.
Her connection to Mexican craftsmanship did not begin during a sourcing trip or as a response to a market trend. It began with the colors, traditions, creative communities, and entrepreneurial spirit that surrounded her from childhood.
Gabriela studied international trade business, marketing, logistics, and e-commerce with a clear purpose: to help remarkable Mexican work reach new customers and markets.
In 2017, that purpose became Solano.
