While enjoying a holiday in one of our Sealand Villas, in an environment of inestimable beauty, take the opportunity of discovering the island’s most treasured handicrafts: footwear, leather, pottery, embroidery and fabrics, among others.

In Pollença, you’ll find the renowned de llengues fabric, as well as wooden furniture, pottery and embroidery, all made by hand.

We also recommend you visit the nearby town of Inca, where some of the best shoes in the world are manufactured, like Camper or Yanko. Many of the factories have their own shops, where visitors can buy these products directly off the hands of the artisans. There is also a significant production of top quality handbags, leather jackets, belts, etc...

Mallorca also offers visitors magnificent pieces of pottery and ceramics, such as the typical siurell figures, or any type of household item: mugs, plates, cups and other utensils traditionally made of clay.

When on holiday in Mallorca, you can also witness the artistic elaboration of blown glass. The most important factories in this sector are Gordiola, Menestralia and Lafiore.

Traditional Mallorcan embroidery is also a prized handmade product, although somewhat harder to find. It can be purchased in Lloseta, Banyalbufar, Pollença and Palma, but the most well-known embroidery craftsmen are in Artà and Campos.
