Miniature patio makers – Spain. A shop wall display of handmade fridge magnets of various patio designs on sale The historic city of Cordoba in the province of Andalusia in southern Spain is famous for its annual ÔFestival of CordobaÕ (patios), filled with a blaze of colour on surrounding wall-hanging potted plants in large and small courtyards during the first weeks of May. Seeing a gap in the tourist market, Carmen Maria and Rafael Aguilera, both skilled jewellers, turned their hands to creating handmade miniature Cordoba patios. Their small retail business is called ÔArtisan PatiosÕ and it started trading in 2013. It is the only miniaturist workshop of its kind in Andalusia. Says, Rafael, ÔCarmen is in charge of design, and I do the creative work. The couple have been awarded the ÔSingular WorkÕ category in the cityÕs annual ÔCourtyards Festival of Cordoba 2023Õ (patios): with their large-scale model of a patio on display in their front shop window.
