Handicraft

Bordado Madeira (Madeira Embroidery) started about 150 years ago and acquired a great commercial expression between the 19th and 20th centuries. At this time, it was introduced in various world markets, from the United Kingdom, Italy, United States, Singapore, Australia, among others.

Characterised by naturalistic patterns inspired by the island, they are carefully designed and embroidered by skilful embroiderers. Its productive process goes through several phases until it is certified with a stamp that guarantees its authenticity and quality so that it can later be commercialized in the regional, national, and international market.

Madeira embroidery is unique but has versatile characteristics, which allows it to be used both in purely decorative elements and in haute couture collections.
