Our story began in 2010<\/strong>. The first shop was preceded by extensive planning: we definitely wanted to be different than other similar gift shops. We have insisted<\/strong> on this principle to this day, which atmosphere is immediately felt by visitors upon entering.<\/p>\n
[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”30″ down=”0″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
Our spacious, clearly furnished shops provide comfortable selection process for our guests. We have created a wide, but very high-quality product line<\/strong>, therefore tourists can learn everything about sights even in the most hidden corners of the country. We strive to offer real pleasure<\/strong>: we inform our visitors in bilingual brochures not only about our products, but also the related folk customs, traditions or even the story of the specific gift. In addition to classic gift items<\/strong>, our shelves also display quality Hungaricums<\/strong>, and we offer a wide range of children’s toys and the flavours of Hungarian cuisine<\/strong> as well. In recent years, we have also paid special attention to the design of our own collections, warmly welcome by our guests. We strive to become real goldmines, small isles in the city that provide delightful experience in themselves.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”small” position=”left” up=”6″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
The first\u00a0Birdy\u00a0came to light in 2000. The form was inspired by Judit Karsay’s feelings and imagination.

Thanks to the special procedure, there are no two perfectly same coloured birdies, they all have their own, unique painting and colour. At present the birdies are created in five different sizes.<\/p>\n
