About us

Passionate about cultures – across generations.

From around the globe.

Ethno-Art is a very special shop in the heart of Basel. For over 35 years, we have stocked a unique range of jewellery, textiles and other treasures from around the globe, predominantly from Asia and Africa.


Fair first and foremost.
We ourselves unearthed every single piece of jewellery and every item during our extensive travels. We personally know all our producers and visit them regularly. We work exclusively with small businesses – because for us, fair trade is paramount.


Personal and individual
Your wishes are important to us. We are always happy to advise you, sharing our ideas and the thorough expertise we have gained over the years.
Look forward to a shopping experience in a beautiful ambience that you won't find anywhere else in Basel.
