Artesanos has a noble cause,
a strong passion
and a unique history.
|
Passion
Artesanos provides
fine, custom reproductions of buildings handcrafted by non-literate,
rural artisans in Colombia, South America. |
Vision
Our goal is to
be recognized locally, nationally, and internationally as THE
brand of reference for handcrafted, custom reproductions of buildings,
while helping struggling, talented artisans in developing countries
earn their livelihoods with their art. |
Mission
While
Artesanos is a for-profit organization, it has the explicit mission
of offering an opportunity to talented but disfavored artisans
in Colombia, South America.
By utilizing
these original works of art from Artesanos, you will not only
benefit from events such as fund-raising, capital campaigns,
stewardship campaigns and celebrations, but your will also be
supporting Artesanos’ noble mission of assisting struggling
third world craftsmen. Artesanos is committed to providing an
avenue through which these talented, but unprivileged artists
can earn their livelihood with their arts and keep their age-old
tradition alive.

A recent history,
a long heritage
Artesanos means
artisans in Spanish. Artesanos was born in early 2003 in Pittsburgh,
PA as a dream to promote within the United States the age-old
tradition of Colombian artisans who master the ceramic crafts.
From the early days, the public has been enthusiastic about our
original and exclusive creations and has commissioned Artesanos
to craft the renderings of their buildings.
Shortly after
the successful introduction of the ceramic models, Artesanos
launched a new line of business into the U.S. market: architectural
scale models (www.artesanos.us/scale).
From the early days, the architectural models were as successful
as the ceramic replicas. They have left our customers breathless
thanks to the quality, and level of detail that exceeded their
expectations. |
