Buying handmade products on Amazon is like drinking a fire hose: it can't meet your specific needs at all, and it doesn't work well. Fortunately, Amazon Handmade has been around for more than five years and has a space for customers to purchase authentic handmade products in various categories from verified manufacturers. Although there are many success stories and more than 100 manufacturers with millions of revenues, the SKU has exploded, including Harry Styles air fresheners for your car and every ostomy cover you can imagine.
In other words, it is difficult for consumers to sift through the trash and find tasteful limited edition handmade products. That's why we invite Hearth Co, an online curator who pays attention to provenance and style, to choose the ten best handmade shops on Amazon and eliminate the guesswork for you.

As one of the more mature handmade shops on Amazon Handmade, Zohar Shaham Ceramics has dozens of exquisite designs to choose from, which will be shipped within 2 to 5 weeks. The studio focuses on minimalist handmade ceramic tableware and home decoration. All items are made of natural clay and then thrown on a pottery wheel, colored and glazed by hand.
The founder Zohar said that her home in Israel is a lovely small village surrounded by natural beauty. "I use lead-free glass, which makes every piece meet food safety standards. I use the highest quality materials and multiple burns to make durable pieces that you can use repeatedly or even pass on as a family souvenir."
The editor recommended these ceramic matcha bowls and this turquoise glazed natural clay ramen bowl.
The story behind this handmade bag label is so heartwarming. Ten years ago, the designer and manufacturer found himself attracted to a store in Hong Kong that sold hundreds of ribbons, trims and sequins in different colors. She started to teach herself to sew... "With a household sewing machine worth 80 dollars and a new challenge in my hands, a few hours passed. I rediscovered a creative spirit. In the process, I deliberately changed Put this spirit aside," she said. Fast forward to the present, she handles all aspects of production by hand in her studio in New York. Her product line includes beach bags, messenger bags, handbags, leather wristbands, all of which have a simple and casual atmosphere, as well as a high degree of attention to detail and quality, which you can really feel.
The editor recommended is the medium bucket bag. This linen wristband can also be used as a purse or cosmetic bag.
Ah linen...how we love you. Not only because you are a biodegradable and recyclable renewable resource, but also because you keep us cool in the heat and isolate the cold, so that we can sleep well all year round. So linen! It sells 50 pages of fine linen products in its Amazon Handmade store, but also customizes almost anything, with an average production time of 15 days. The linen is stonewashed (softened, pre-shrunk, medium weight), and all products are carefully designed and hand-sewn in Warsaw, Poland, and shipped worldwide with a 30-day return policy.
The editor recommends this gray striped summer linen bedspread and this lovely natural linen hair turban.
Jewelry is one of the most subscribed categories on Amazon Handmade. Interestingly, California, Arizona, North Carolina, Michigan and Pennsylvania are among the states with the most manufacturers. Although not this! Sara is from St. Louis, Missouri, but it was her connection with Colombia, South America that made her a craftsman. "As a child, at the end of my (Colombia) trip, I will go home with handmade wallets, belts and jewelry. This is the first time I have experienced the joy of handmade jewelry; they come from the earth and are made by Real people made it intentionally!" Sara Patino's collection is designed for women who care about life. Her unique, simple and original design is based on goodwill to the earth, made with recycled gold and silver and ethical gems.
Editor's recommendation: exquisite petal pearl earrings.
Maison D'Hermine enters the handmade shop through the production line with a carefully hand-painted design using centuries-old watercolor techniques. Their iconic patterns are designed by European designers and printed on 100% cotton fabrics in India in rich colors. Since many designs are inspired by seasonality and are usually timeless, the advantage of tablecloths is that they can be reused for many years. To be honest, as long as Aunt Margaret doesn't spill too much red wine or try to iron them on high places, the reinforced stitching and firmly fixed corners mean that this durable curtain can be passed on from generation to generation.
The editor recommends this Limoncello 100% cotton tablecloth and this French cotton style 100% cotton tablecloth.
Except for custom hats, life is too short. Agnoulita Hats is an old-school family business (85 and third generation hatmakers) that you think you can entrust. In their studio in Piraeus, Greece, there are no standard shapes or mass-produced hydraulic cap presses. They use original building blocks and the same technology to make hats for people all over the world who appreciate real quality and craftsmanship. Their product range includes all classic and popular styles. Think about it: Bolero, club member, Mojave. For the hat body, they provide a variety of color combinations such as wool felt, rabbit felt and hare felt, velvet, peach suede, melange (spots), beaver skin and some of the most beautiful Milan straws. You can read the complete production process here.
The editor's recommendation (and of course Celine Dion) is this rabbit felt fedora.
They say that necessity is the mother of invention, and so is the story of Park & Madison. Frustrated by the lack of quality and the soot and smoke produced by many store-bought candles leaving a black film on the walls of white apartments, co-owners Jenn and Nolan began experimenting with different types of wax and essential oil blends. After a year of research and development, they finally have a clean burning soy wax candle. That day was East Harlem, New York in 2014. The company continues to use all-natural soy waxes and unique essential oil blends and phthalate-free aromatic oils in its products. Candles are produced in small batches and are now available in Charleston and Philadelphia.
The editor recommended this Mulled Cider Candle, but if you are looking for a lighter and fresher fragrance, Lavendar Rosemary Candle is definitely worth a try.
Without lace, any handmade list is incomplete! Freefille has created unique lace wall hangings and plant hangers, each with a modern style of nostalgic lace from the 70s. They are made of high-quality chemical-free cotton rope purchased locally in Canada. Each piece is an original artwork using different types of knots, materials and colors, and looks equally stunning in the home, retail and office spaces. The magical installation shown above by the founder and manufacturer Isabel is hung in a restaurant in Ontario.
The editor's choice is a large lace plant hanger (and the fact that you can customize popular colors!)
The pressing question is whether it is still exotic and attractive when you can buy Beni Ouarain rugs on Amazon for $500 instead of risking the Marrakech market (or snapping up bargains from a Brooklyn warehouse) force. If the answer is yes and this is the aesthetic you are looking for, then Berber really seems to be a low-cost way to buy a series of Moroccan hand-woven rugs, pom-pom blankets, kilim poufs and cactus silk cushions. This is a small weaving and textile company with a small number of Berber craftsmen and tailors honing their skills in the Atlas Mountains. On the surface, the carpet looks very beautiful, and it is available in many designs and sizes.
The editor recommended 22x22" Cactus Silk Cushion Cover and Rust Cactus Silk Area Rug, although it is really difficult to choose only one!
When you need it, it's hard to come across handmade wooden toys. However, they are a wonderful gift for young families, and they are much better than the plastic garbage flooded in toy stores. In this case, the goods were shipped all the way from Moscow, Russia. Although there seemed to be some delivery problems in the comments, most of the customers seemed to be ecstatic about the high-quality craftsmanship. This Amazon store has nearly 150 wooden toys to choose from, all of which are handmade from natural, durable and environmentally friendly materials that are safe for children and the environment. The toy is made of beech, amaranth, hamu, basswood, oak, and made of linseed oil.
The editor recommends handmade wooden toy log trucks and mushroom woodland educational toys.
