KARINCA Stores: The Story of Handicrafts in Haliç, Vatan Avenue, Zeyrekhane and Balat

KARINCA Stores continue to serve in Haliç, Vatan Avenue, Zeyrekhane and Balat. Handicrafts and artistic works await you in our stores.

KARINCA Handicraft Stores, opened by the Fatih Municipality to support local production and handicrafts, operate in four different locations: Haliç, Vatan Avenue, Zeyrekhane and Balat. These stores, where handmade products and artistic works come together, attract the attention of both art lovers and craft enthusiasts. Unique pieces from many branches, from porcelain to ceramics, jewellery to textiles, are on display.

The shops in Haliç and Balat particularly host artistic works produced by the handiwork of trainees. The income generated from the products sold here is left directly to the trainees, contributing to both their financial gain and the continuation of their artistic production.

The shop on Vatan Avenue offers visitors a wide range of products made in the KARINCA workshops. Products related to different handicrafts such as ceramics, jewellery, filigree, leatherwork, textiles, furnishings and knitting are displayed here. This shop also supports the continuation of the workshop activities.

In Zeyrekhane, there is a small sales corner in addition to the shop concept. Here, selected handmade products meet art lovers.

KARINCA Shops can be visited every weekday between 11:00 and 16:00. These shops are not only important for those interested in handmade products, but also for those who value supporting local art and craftsmanship.

Fatih Municipality's initiative provides a platform that brings together handicrafts and art, connecting local artisans and trainees with art lovers. Every product purchased here not only contributes to local production but also gains meaning as a special work that preserves the value of handicrafts. KARINCA Stores continue to bring the work of local producers to wider audiences by combining art and craftsmanship.
