About Polar Embassy
Polar Embassy is a playful publishing house in Berlin.
We spotlight LGBTQIA+ artists and are fully transparent with our European supply chain.
Hi! I'm Jon, your Polar Ambassador.
In 2020, I illustrated a deck of Tarot cards for my best friend as a Christmas present. She suggested I self-publish it, and Polar Embassy was born.
Four years later, it has grown into an independent publishing house that celebrates queer joy by highlighting LGBTQIA+ artists. What a gift this is.
We work with local printers, especially those with Cradle to Cradle certification, to reduce our footprint as much possible, and open-source our supply chain.
In 2023, Polar Embassy was one of 32 teams recognized as leaders of Cultural and Creative industries in Germany through the KreativPilot*in program.
