Small Team, Big Care for Detail
Curio Prints isn't a faceless factory — it's a hands-on custom 3D printing operation that takes ideas seriously, whether it's a birthday gift or a part you thought you'd never find again.
Who We Are
We're a small, hands-on 3D printing operation — think one maker (or a tiny team) at a workbench, not a call centre. Every enquiry gets read by an actual human, and every print gets checked before it goes out.
We got into this because we love the moment an idea on a screen becomes something you can hold. That's still the best part of the job, and it's why we keep the process personal instead of automated.
Why Go Custom?
Buying something generic is easy. Getting something made exactly the way you pictured it — that's where we come in.
-
Made to your exact spec
Size, shape, colour, finish — built around what you actually need, not the closest thing on a shelf.
-
One-off or small batch
Whether you need one piece or ten, we print to the number you actually want.
-
Direct back-and-forth with a real person
Questions, tweaks, changed your mind halfway — you're talking to the maker, not a ticket queue.
-
The right material for the job
We pick materials and finish based on how the piece will actually be used, not just what's cheapest.
What You Can Expect From Us
A few things we take pride in, order after order.
Care in the finishing
We don't just stop the print and box it — supports get cleaned up, surfaces get checked, and rough edges get smoothed before anything ships.
Happy to iterate
Not quite right? We'll talk through changes with you before we commit anything to the print bed, not after.

Proudly local
We're a South African operation, and we're proud of the craftsmanship that comes out of it.
