About Tucu
The Story Behind TUCU
Some names begin with a story. Mine began with a word.
When I was a little girl, I couldn’t quite pronounce tată, the Romanian word for Dad. Instead, I called my father TUCU. My two younger sisters followed, and before long, it became a name that everyone in our family knew and loved.
What began as a child’s little word became a cherished part of my life.
Years later, when I began creating my own world of handmade art, I knew I wanted that name to be part of it.
And so, TUCU Atelier was born — a place where curiosity, imagination, and a love for nature come together, giving new life to ordinary materials.
A little word from childhood. A lifetime of meaning.
