flowers44 Posted February 6, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I only saw large Haitian paintings, carved wooden items and lots of other stuff. No really nice jewelry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloudydrms Posted April 1, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I remember reading a post describing the different vendor areas on Labadee. I see that the three areas are Artisans Village, Artisans Market, and Artisans Showcase. Which one is the one where they don't bug you? I know there's one. I think it's in a building.

LadyBeBop Posted April 7, 2015 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I actually want to help stimulate the local economy by buying something made in Haiti. What kind of art do you suggest? Sounds like paintings. Not interested in jewelry, and definitely not interested in goods imported from China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make wood carvings and there is something that's called Sandstone - which is supposed to be native to the island that they make into sculptures.

dividedsky Posted May 8, 2015 #8 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I don't really remember seeing anything crazy for jewelry. I will say this though the market building that's in the middle of the place is where to look at things you are able to freely look at what they have. They definitely did have a lot of nice artwork and other things. All the stalls along the back trail they were so overly pushy with their wares. We walked along the trail and every single vendor shouted at us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamamzee Posted June 6, 2015 #9 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Agree that the nicer stuff is in the building and some of it was really nice. Not to rain on parades, but there ARE poor dogs that roam the area which makes me sad. Buffet is lousy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
