Our Story

Original Collections was founded by a Barb, a woman with a restless spirit seeking a greater purpose. Despite a successful corporate career, she was never truly fulfilled. In pursuit of a more meaningful path, she began selling bohemian clothing at street fairs and music festivals. In 2007, her journey led her to discover the beauty of Nepalese arts and crafts. A true bohemian at heart, Barb found fulfillment in providing products that allow customers to express their style and individuality. By connecting customers with expert craftswomen in Nepal, Original Collections empowers these artisans to live better lives.
