An exceptional place:
The synthesis of a hip boutique and a cutting-edge gallery.

Cologne-based engelelf specializes in the presentation and sale of one-of-a-kind pieces and collections of young European designers. The shop is a combination showroom and distribution center for artists and small-design labels. Engelelf displays Functional design objects, such as hand-printed pillows and contemporary furniture and lamps. The store also offers sophisticated handbags made from unique materials, interesting fashions and dazzling accessories. All engelelf pieces are all handmade but sold at reasonable prices. Nothing we carry is mass-produced.

Because our product line is constantly expanded and renewed, the concept of engelelf is always evolving. engelelf organizes quarterly exhibitions with up-and-coming artists in several media -- photography, textile designers and painting. Engelelf creator Markus Schaefer tracks elegant and innovative design objects, art pieces and fashion trends in metropolitan European areas. Schaefer also produces T-shirts and postcards under his own label, engelelf.
