Kunsthandwerkermarkt
Darmstadt Arts & Crafts Market
If you are looking for an unusual piece for your home, an original gift or a special piece of jewellery, the traditional Darmstadt arts and crafts market on the Friedensplatz is just the place for you.
The range on offer is diverse: pieces of jewelry that impress with their special design and high-quality workmanship, ceramic products that are both practical and decorative, unique fashion items that reflect individuality and style and creative design and decorative items that add a special charm to any room.
The market not only offers the chance to purchase exceptional handicrafts, but also the opportunity to learn the stories behind the works and talk to the artisans in person. At one stand or another, visitors can also watch the production process using various techniques, from jewelry making to the customization of belts and wood carvings. Some products can also be customized. There is always sewing, screwing, threading and working on sculptures at the market - so it is not only a sales area, but also a place to exhibit and experience local and national arts and crafts.

Saturday 16. and Sunday 17. August
Venue: Friedensplatz, 64283 Darmstadt, Germany
Opening hours of the stands:
Saturday: 10 am to 7 pm

Paper studio tulibri - Astrid Haas
tulibri - these are unusual books in a fresh design, lovingly handmade in my small manufactory: writing and travel books, photo albums and more. My aim is to create books with meaning. According to the motto: ‘take what's been discarded and make something beautiful out of it’, I turn old atlases, coffee sacks and recycled leather into unique ‘green’ books with the charm of things with a history.
About tulibri
tulibri is a ‘self-made’ artificial word. It stands for tulip, because they are my favourite flowers. Only the simple, unadorned ones please. And libri (Italian) stands for books.
tulibri is pronounced with an emphasis on the ‘tu’ - like ‘hummingbird’.

A colourful world that combines old and new, resulting in gift ideas or especially jewellery collections, which I would like to present to you on these pages and also especially live at selected markets.

I get my inspiration from everything I see and everything I have experienced so far.
