Our Story

Petit Collage is all about good design. We combine a modern aesthetic with a sustainability criteria to create bold, thoughtful products to delight little ones. With a focus on designing with the health of our children, and the planet in mind, we strive to make our products beautiful and fun in equal measure.

Where it all began…

In 2006, Petit Collage founder, Lorena Siminovich, hand-crafted a little animal collage using recycled materials as a gift for a pregnant friend. Her friend loved it – and Lorena loved making it! This small, considerate gesture was the beginning of Petit Collage. It not only inspired our company name but our sustainability ethos, too. The Petit Collage brand quickly grew into a successful line of toys, puzzles, games and lifestyle gifts sold all over the world. 

 

...to where we are now!

In 2020, Petit Collage was acquired by Chronicle Books (a fellow San Francisco company!) and now has a fantastic team spread out across sunny California and historic Bath, England.

Good Design

So much yet so little has changed since that first recycled owl collage made on Lorena’s kitchen table.
