Dédalo

Dédalo is a must see. Even if you don’t plan to spend any money, it is well worth the visit. Staged in an old refurbished house in Barranco, a block away from the sea, it offers Peruvian non-traditional workmanship at its best. You will find beautiful handmade ceramics, blown glass, design-winning woodwork, stone carvings and the latest in textile design, among other works of art on a world-class level. They have a nice coffee shop on the inside patio, a children’s toy area, handmade jewelry and a permanent exhibition of unique objects made out of recycled materials. There is no pressure to buy, so you can just wander at your leisure through the treasure-filled rooms.

Traveler Reviews of Dédalo

Awesome place

The place is perfect to find a unique gift. The cafeteria is really good, the pecan pie in particular is to die for.

A MUST SEE!

I loved the atmosphere and the way every designer had the chance to show their art pieces. I thought some things were a little pricy, but the experience is worth it even if you don't want to buy anything ... Nice jewelry, nice purses, nice furniture.

Great place to visit

If you visit Barranco, go to this place. They have a great selection of artifacts made by many Peruvian artists. You will find very unique items.

Worth spending time

Pleasant atmosphere with great finds. Just disappointed we had only a short time to browse, we would have bought much more if time had permitted.
