I am way overdue and leaving this review. We discovered this fantastic costume shop one summer…read morewhile wandering around in Venice. It's unassuming exterior does not do justice to the beautiful costumes inside. Although we were not in the market for buying a costume, we were very happy to discover that they created exquisite masquerade masks. After several days of looking at hordes and hordes and hordes of mass produced, Chinese - made masks in all the souvenir shops, it was a relief to finally discover true artisans! Flavia was a very hospitable shopkeeper. She went out of her way to demonstrate all the different kinds of costumes that they provided, showed us pictures of amazing balls that they helped host, fantastical costumes she had created... We didn't just purchase wonderful masks; we had a cultural experience! Thank you Flávia for providing us such a unique experience!!

Our experience last week at this wonderful establishment is a highlight of our family trip to…read moreItaly. Our family ranges in age from 15 to 80 and we ALL loved the workshop experience. We were greeted by the owners, Carlo and his talented and sweet daughter. She guided us in our mask making experience and we all loved it. Venice was our first stop on our 10-day Italy experience; the masks survived trains and planes and automobiles. They are intact and we will soon display them in our NH home.

Even under the intense siege of cheap made-in-China plastic masks, authentic artisans like the ones…read morein Atelier Marega continue to stand their ground in preserving the Venetian arts despite of the disadvantages. Atelier Marega is one of the few shops that continue to handcraft the traditional carnivals that give Venezia her famous identiy. Like typical artisan shops, the masks are relatively pricey with the cheapest ones being more than €20, and that stopped me from purchasing the first time I was in. However, after comparing to few including the most famous Ca' Macana, this shop definitely has the most beautiful masks around, and I actually went back to buy one! I like Marega's masks the best because they continued to preserve the traditional look but also add a little pazazz such as the music sheets to give a Phantom of Opera vibe. I think this shop's creativity of stepping a little in the modernity while maintaining the tradition allows their masks to stand out from both fellow artisan masks and cheap plastic masks. Also, at the same price level, Atelier Marega's masks are actually much more ornate than their competitors! Anyway, support the Venetian artisans! Venezia is not only a sinking city but also a dying one as locals are getting pushed out by cheap imports killing local business and high housing cost making living expensive. With so many beautiful unique masks to choose, Atelier Marega makes supporting this noble cause easy! --- tl;dr version: 1) One of the few remaining authentic Venetian mask makers 2) More beautiful and unique masks I've seen than elsewhere 3) Recommended for your Venetian mask purchase

An amazing time creating your own mask with superb coaching. Definitely a must do in Venice!!read more

From the owner: This can seems a dream.... but it's the story of my life…read more.... To be born in Venice is a privilege, but it's a big luck to have a father in love with arts and a mother seamstress.. I've breathed all of this since i was a child, among the "calli" and the Venetian Palaces, and it has been the most natural thing to transform it into my work. The mesmerizing charm of Venetian Masks and Historical Costumes is the same in times. The pleasure of disguising game attracts every year countless people and hide oneself behind a mask is an irresistible attraction. A Masked Ball can be the dream of an entire life. But what's the work behind all of this? Finished my languages studies i began as employee by whom thaught me a lot, leaving me free to experiment with my first masks and costumes.. Over the years i developed my techniques and my own style. Masks have to be worn like sparkling jewels to enhance the glamourous spirit of Carnival, and the costumes, even if following the original style of their centuries, have to shine on their own light with gold, silver, cristals to make the game even more magical. I have named my Atelier "Sogno Veneziano" because to come to our city is everyone's dream, and live the misterious atmosphere of Venice is a unique experience. I like to think the best is yet to come!! Inside the Atelier you'll find a rich and always renewed collection of Costumes and Masks. You only find one of kind pieces, that has been created respecting the tradition of handwork.
