Art Center Caravel – The Craft Store

Where Portuguese tradition meets contemporary artistry

Since 2017, Art Center Caravel has been rooted in the artistic heart of Funchal’s Old Town, on the island of Madeira. From the very beginning, our vision has been clear: to support and celebrate local and Portuguese crafters and artists, giving space to both heritage and innovation.

Today, our craft store proudly showcases the work of around 30 carefully selected artists and makers, forming a vibrant community of creators who represent some of the most contemporary expressions of Portuguese craft — from ceramics and illustration to textile, wood, natural paper, and mixed-media design.


 

We believe that craft is more than technique — it’s identity, storytelling, and cultural memory. That’s why we focus not only on the quality of materials and functionality, but also on each artist’s individual voice and visual language.

Our curated collections reflect a fresh and respectful take on traditional Portuguese craftsmanship, bringing together timeless materials with bold forms and modern aesthetics. Whether it’s a hand-thrown mug, a linocut print, or a sculptural object made from recycled materials — everything you’ll find here is created with intention.

Art Center Caravel is not just a store.
It’s a living archive of contemporary craft, a meeting point between generations, and a space where craftsmanship becomes culture.
