OUR STORY
“I didn’t know what my limitations were, and I didn’t know what rules I was supposed to follow — so I just went with my gut.”
Karen Feldman · founder, Prague
An American fine-art photographer who came to Prague and saw Bohemian crystal through an outsider’s eyes. Karen founded ARTĚL in 1998, guided by instinct rather than convention. That freedom shaped a bold, graphic visual language that continues to set ARTĚL apart from traditional luxury crystal houses.

Every piece in the store is made to order in Bohemia and shipped worldwide. The crystal is the same; only the walk is missing.
