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.

Holzschmuckunikate - Bernd Holitzka
For more than 32 years I have been working with about 80 different and sometimes very unusual woods, from A like Amboina burl to Z like Ziricote, from all over the world. They are not dyed or glued together, but are always pure nature, and I only use oil or wax as a surface. I like to leave natural inclusions or grown edges in the jewellery. Each piece is absolutely unique.

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