Amata arts and crafts markets in December
With the arrival of December, the opportunities to find special gifts for Christmas are also approaching. The art and craft fairs organized by Amata bring together talented artisans from various disciplines: potters, leather workers, wood turners, painters, goldsmiths and candle makers, among others. All of them offer unique pieces, handmade and, if you wish, personalised according to your preferences.
Imagine commissioning a portrait of a loved one or pet, an exclusive piece of jewellery with the stone of your choice, or even a crocheted stuffed animal. If you're looking for something practical, like a handbag or a handmade backpack, you can find that too. These fairs provide many options for meaningful and unique presents.
In the fairs the artisans display a selection of their work at their stalls: decorative ceramics, exclusive jewellery, watercolours, pyrography, painted stones and paper maché figures. At Amata markets you can be sure that everything you see is authentic and handmade, with the author willing to share with you the story behind each piece.
During December, the Amata Craft Fairs will be held in:
