Cantaro, Madrid

While exploring the diverse regions of Spain, you'll come across a myriad of exquisitely crafted and vibrantly colored ceramics. Pitchers adorned with broad brushstrokes of blue and gray from Granada, serving bowls from Toledo embellished with radiant flowers forming intricate rings, and mosaic-tiled clocks reminiscent of a Gaudí museum.

However, if your time doesn't permit a countrywide ceramic treasure hunt, fear not! Just a stone's throw away from Madrid's bustling tourist hub, the Gran Via, you'll find Cantaro, a charming shop brimming with artisanal creations sourced from various corners of Spain. In addition to an impressive array of traditional ceramics, including faithful reproductions of cherished masterpieces, affordability takes center stage here (a handmade pitcher for just €12? Score!).

From pots to platters, clocks to salt-and-pepper shakers, and everything in between, Cantaro offers an extensive selection of gifts in all shapes, sizes, and price ranges. No stranger to ceramic-lovers, they will carefully wrap your chosen piece, ensuring its safe journey home.
