Who We Are? & What We Are Doing?

Chilture is a display, retail, wholesale oriental artworks and handicrafts created by Chinese (Disabled) artists online shopping store.

Chilture was established in order to help more talented disabled artists to achieve values of self-reliance and self-actualization. By selling their goods we can improve their living standards and launch “CHILTURE CARE” which is designed to help all of the disability community.

Our Story & Background

When it all began…

This site was found by Jackie in 2008, and here is the story of Jackie and Chilture.

“Hi, my name is Jackie. Originally, I wanted to create a practical online oriental handcrafts store. One day, I came across a ragged disabled artist who was concentrating on creating calligraphy art work near by the train station. I was so shocked, because he had no hands, and just used his upper arms to write. The artist with disability was gracefully moving his brush, it was mesmerizing. I knew he didn’t want to give up his art after his catastrophic accident and worked so hard using his upper arms to practice writing. Year after year he has been sticking to his practice. Finally, he now has the chance to become not only a calligrapher but also a good artist. ‘Although life is very difficult, I will not give up the pursuit of the art of calligraphy!’ he said.

Perhaps he gave me the inspiration; why not create an online store for those disabled artists? Let people know what one can do with the desire to create, despite having a physical problem and let everyone to buy these fabulous pieces of art. So I quit my job to build this website.”
