Our History

Company History

Belaova was born from the meeting of two cultures and two legends. Inspired by Bellenos, the Celtic god of light and craftsmanship, and Faova, the Native American god of nature and creation, we created a brand that embodies the perfect symbiosis between tradition and innovation.

Our mission is to revitalize the cigar accessories market by offering products of exceptional quality, manufactured with passion and precision.

Philosophy and commitment

At Belaova, we believe in the beauty of detail and the importance of craftsmanship. Our commitment to quality is evident in every step of our manufacturing process.

We rigorously select the best materials, combining precious woods and refined ceramics, to create unique pieces that respect and enhance the cigar.

We are proud of our French heritage and our commitment to Made in France. Every Belaova product is designed and manufactured in France by artisans dedicated to their craft. We combine traditional techniques with modern innovations to offer accessories that blend aesthetics and functionality, meeting the expectations of even the most discerning cigar aficionados.

The founders

The founders of the brand, Hugo Picaper and Martin Radzikowski, met many years ago at a cigar club. This led to a long-standing friendship and numerous shared moments and discussions about this world.

It quickly became apparent that many accessories, while classic—and therefore uninspired—were rather generic and lacked originality, particularly cigar humidors. The founders decided to move away from standardized, uniform products towards a more unique experience.

Their aim is to offer a unique cigar humidor experience, through their distinctive, handcrafted design and the feeling of belonging to a genuine brand committed to the quality of its products. This experience can be further enhanced by product personalization options (engravings and markings).

They made the decision to entrust the entire production to trusted French craftsmen, who know how to take special care with their creations, down to the smallest details.

The collections will appeal to epicureans interested in sharing unique moments around cigars.
