Our journey began long before JK Styl CZ s.r.o. was officially registered in the Commercial Register on January 19, 2004. It was passion, determination, and a desire to create something exceptional that led the founder, Ing. Stanislav Kadula, to make a decision that changed his life and the lives of many artists. Our story is one of faith in quality, craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to providing creative individuals with the best equipment to help them fulfil their artistic dreams.
After 1989, during a time of great change and opportunity, Ing. Kadula decided to step away from the conventional path and embark on an entrepreneurial journey. He started manufacturing furniture in rented premises in Bílovec. However, as fate would have it, a different plan was in store. The first major turning point came when he established a partnership with a Dutch company seeking a manufacturer of high-quality painting easels. The initial samples were a great success, proving that the path of artistic equipment was the right one. This was the moment when our specialization in painting easels was born—a product that became not only our main focus but also a symbol of our quality.
We started modestly, with only three models of painting easels. Over time, we have expanded our product range, which now caters to everyone—from art school students and professional painters to exhibition galleries. While our core range of easels remains largely unchanged, we continuously introduce new models that reflect the evolving needs and trends of the art world.
At JK Styl CZ s.r.o., we believe that art is a language through which everyone can express their feelings, thoughts, and dreams. Our mission is to provide artists of all levels with equipment that allows them to create without limitations.
Our customers are the heart of our business. They come from all walks of life, with different styles and skill levels. Professional painters who inspire the world with their work. Hobby artists who discover the joy of painting in their free time. Art school students searching for reliable equipment for their first steps in the artistic world. Galleries that need elegant easels to showcase their exhibitions. Cities and organizations that use our products for cultural events. And even technical companies that utilize our brushes for specialized purposes, such as cleaning machinery.
We believe that every artist—whether a professional or a beginner—deserves to work with products that help them reach their full potential. That is why we are here for everyone who seeks quality, reliability, and aesthetics.
What sets us apart from the rest? JK Styl CZ s.r.o. is a company built on family values, traditional craftsmanship, and quality. Unlike mass production, which often relies on cheap materials and rapid manufacturing, we adhere to a philosophy of honest work and meticulous attention to detail. Every painting easel, every canvas, and every tool that leaves our workshop passes through the hands of our skilled craftsmen, ensuring that each product meets our high standards. We believe that art deserves the best—and that even artistic tools should be small works of art themselves.
We take pride in resisting the pressure of mass production from Asia, instead focusing on unique products that are aesthetic, functional, and crafted with love for detail. Our products are not just tools—they are partners that accompany you on your artistic journey.
Over the years, we have continuously evolved and expanded. Each year, every new project has taken us one step further:
2006 – While our art supplies are primarily distributed on the domestic market, we have also established a strong international presence, exporting to numerous countries, including Slovakia, England, Norway, Finland, Switzerland, Germany, Greece, and more.
For over eight years, we also manufactured and supplied painting easels for the renowned British company Daler-Rowney. As part of this long-term collaboration, we contributed to the development of the innovative UNI A3 painting easel, which became a bestseller in the U.S. and U.K. markets. This experience strengthened our position in the international market and proved our ability to deliver large volumes of products without compromising on quality.
