CREATING WITH PAPER SINCE 1892
Pasqual Arnella was founded in Barcelona in 1892 as a manufacturer of the beloved papier-mâché horses. With a rich heritage rooted in creativity and craftsmanship, our journey began with these iconic creations that captured the imagination of many.
In 1970, the advent of new materials like plastic and the invention of the first electromechanical toys brought significant changes to the industry. Recognizing the need to adapt, Pasqual Arnella invested in innovative methods and production systems to maintain our competitive edge. This strategic shift led to the development of an exclusive system, enabling us to produce high-quality papier-mâché figures and models at a very reasonable cost.
Since then, Pasqual Arnella has grown considerably, becoming a renowned specialist in customized works with a wide range of products catering to mannequins, handicrafts, displays and commercial decoration.
