The Artesanía Masdache souvenir shop is the perfect place to find a souvenir of local art from Lanzarote.
You will find one of the Lanzarote local art magnet exhibitors in this beautiful place, with the entire collection and models available.
But that's not all, since Cathaysa, a jeweler and artisan from the island of Lanzarote, has for sale an exclusive line of jewelry made with olivine, the precious stone of Lanzarote.
I will tell you more about olivine and the art of Cathaysa
In Lanzarote, olivine is considered a precious stone. It is called olivine mainly for two reasons. The first is that it belongs to the geological group of olivines, stones of volcanic origin forged at up to 1200 degrees. The second reason is its greenish color, like olive.
A somewhat more romantic legend from the island of Lanzarote tells how seagulls picked up the tears of the pain of a green-eyed girl named Olivina. These birds brought tears to the goddess Timanfaya, where they were buried in volcanic stones. Humans and earth came together to form the precious stone of olivine.
Cathaysa's art is to bring part of that story to you. With her hands, she creates beautiful jewelry with this precious stone.
In the Artesanía Madache souvenir shop, you can find, among many other souvenirs, Cathaysa's olivina jewels and exclusive design magnets from the island of Lanzarote de Yaizart.
Now you know that Artesanía Masdache is an essential store to visit if you are looking for a souvenir from Lanzarote that is as special as it is unique.
