Members' reviews on ATELIER MAREGA
The shop is very classy, with some amazing masks. If you're looking for the Venetian masks from the film 'Eyes Wide Shut', then this is the shop to visit.
The owners are very friendly and have extensive dealings with tourists/visitors who stop by in person to buy masks. They also have an 'Etsy' store with their products so shipping internationally is a common thing.
I bought and paid for 2 masks at the shop and have had them shipped from the shop to my home in Canada. The masks arrived via a courier company before I returned home and were very well wrapped, with no damage whatsoever.
