An old laundry, opened up to craftspeople
Over thirty years ago, Toni Sallent and his wife took over this space, once a laundry, and opened it to the potters and glassmakers so they could show and sell their work.
Wrapped with care
Every piece leaves the shop carefully wrapped, so it gets home in one piece, however far home is.
What people say
“A casa fem guardiola cada any per les vacances d’estiu i anem sempre a buscar-la a aquesta botiga. Quan hem acabat les vacances, la tradició és anar a comprar la següent guardiola. És un lloc emblemàtic amb una atenció excepcional.”
“We really loved this shop! It was the only place where we found the traditional ceramic garlic graters we were looking for. Everything was packed with great care, so it would make it safely all the way back to Portugal”
“Fa temps que no hi vaig, pero quines bones compres que he fet, quins records i que agradables son.”
