May Arts was founded in the early 1980’s in Riverside, Connecticut. The original products were high-end silk flowers, which were decorated using quality ribbons. The decorative ribbons proved so popular among customers that the business gradually evolved into a dedicated ribbon wholesaler. May Arts’ founder Mae wanted ribbon lovers in the United States to experience high-end decorative ribbon from her home country of Taiwan, a tradition we are still proud of today, even as we expand to offer more products made in the USA and in Colombia.
