Meet The Owners

Owners, David and Jackie Hook met in the principality of Liechtenstein
while they were individually traveling the world. After a collective two
decades of nonstop travel, David (a New Zealander) and
Jackie (a native Texan) made Austin their home.

Their passion for the amazing furnishings and craftsmanship found on their
travels inspired them to establish an import business, opening Jaya in 1996.

David and Jackie's wanderlust has taken them through more than
50 countries. Exciting finds from their encounters with other cultures
and wildlife fill the Hooks' home as well as their store.

Today, the Hooks live in Austin and travel with their two daughters
collecting inspiring home furnishings and one-of-a-kind treasures for you to enjoy.

David and Jackie invite you to come explore, discover and let your imagination wander.
