Better together
Our Story
Over twenty-five years ago, we both began a perfectly normal and equally wonderful journey into adulthood. Being a woman, becoming a mother, remaining yourself. And growing into new roles at the same time. Listening, perceiving, feeling. Acting and taking responsibility. Feeling joy and amazement - but also doubting and struggling. The limits we came up against were mostly invisible and always unexpected.
When our paths crossed over ten years ago, we knew that we shared the same idea of a colorful family and exciting working life. When we joined forces in 2011, we felt that we could better achieve this compatibility with mutual support. Since then, we have been combining our strengths, pooling our ideas, growing and developing both as a company and personally.
Made with Love
Our claim
We have made it our mission to only make products that you will love. They should feel good, look good, be made from the best materials and be fairly produced. Pieces that will accompany you through the lively family years. Pieces that will one day go into the box of memories. Pieces that you will give to your dearest friends and that you will be happy to pass on when the little people have outgrown them.
EVA by Petit Stellou
More than products
Our NOOSHIs and elephants accompany us every day and together with all our other products are getting our full focus. But our work does not consist exclusively of creating, producing and selling these Petit Stellou favorites. Equally important to us are the encounters and cooperation with the many women whose topics, issues and challenges we share on a daily basis. We believe that an open exchange makes everything easier. That mutual encouragement gives us all the courage to go further and push boundaries.
We dedicate our EVA by Petit Stellou product line to us women!
Producing with a clear conscience
Conscious Creation
We only produce in limited quantities at a time so we can sell everything we produce before making more. We do not rely on trends and do not produce seasonally. We do not carry overstocks.
Producing large quantities just to achieve lower prices is not in line with our values.
We don't want to be a super famous brand that is sold in every store in the world, but we want to make just enough for everyone who really loves our products.
You are the ones we have in mind, your feedback is important to us.
Slow Fashion
Unlike fast fashion, which is ephemeral in quality and style, slow fashion products are made to withstand the whims and trends. It is a lifestyle where you make a conscious choice to consume less and consume better, choosing companies and quality products that will last for many years. Since we don't produce seasonally, we also make our producers happy.
Often brands want their products finished at the same times of the year. This leads to great stress on the production side during short periods and order lulls in the weeks in between. Our producers thank us for this flexibility with top quality. One more reason why we can look back on several years of business relations full of mutual appreciation.
Fair prices
Our prices are fairly calculated. We don’t run seasonal sales. You can have peace of mind to buy our products on your own timeline, because you love them and when you need them. But every now and then there is something to celebrate. We will share this via our newsletter and on our Instagram account.

Our guarantee with the
LOVE Label
Quality and sustainability are core values for us. We choose our manufacturers carefully. All production partners have certificates that guarantee the most conscious and careful interaction with people and the environment as well as resource-saving processes.
Since we manufacture many different products and often only in small batches, certifications on the individual products are not always possible.
Therefore we created the LOVE label which embodies our values.
Lovesome
Lovely products are things that grow on us. And they do so from day one.They become favourite pieces that last for many years.
Often they even become more beautiful through use and years. We believe that by consuming consciously and prioritizing quality, we need less which also means taking care of our planet.
Organic
Focusing on environmentally friendly production is a major core value for us. Together with our production partners, we are always looking for new ways to make our products even more sustainable.
We work as far as possible with natural, renewable or recycled materials. Our organic cotton is GOTS certified. Our wood manufacturer runs a sustainable reforestation program. We try to avoid the use of plastic wherever possible and ship your packages climate neutral. We heat our warehouse with wood pellets.
Versatile
By versatile products we mean things that are in constant use. Really practical things that are beautiful and long-lasting at the same time. Products that either grow with you or can be passed on. We like things to be simple. Simple, yet stylish, blending wonderfully into your personal lifestyle. Whether colorful or monochrome – our products like both!
Ethical
Our production partners are located in Switzerland, Germany, Portugal and Lithuania. They all comply with the applicable EU labor laws and are also committed to the development and training of their employees.
They have their processes regularly audited by independent institutions and hold the following certificates: GOTS, SMETA, Global Recycled Standard, OEKO-TEX Standard 100, BCI, amfori BSCI.
Through our regular visits, we have insight into the production processes, know our partners for several years and maintain trusting relationships.
