Manufactum

Top choice in City West & Charlottenburg


Long before sustainable became a buzzword, this shop (the brainchild of a German Green Party member) stocked traditionally made quality products from around the world, many of which have stood the test of time. Cool finds include hand-forged iron pans by Turk, lavender soap from a French monastery and Japanese knives by Kenyo.
