Welcome to The Germany List Advent Calendar! We’re highlighting international and expat small business owners in Germany and helping you get all of your holiday shopping done all at the same time.

Let’s not forgot about our four-legged friends this Christmas. Kivilcim Ertas Karan, owner of K’s Craft House, is originally from Istanbul and now living In Berlin. Driven by a love for creating unique, handcrafted items from polymer clay and jesmonite, Kivilcim specializes in bespoke terrazzo pet portraits, meticulously sculpted by hand and tailored to each customer’s individual preferences.

Her Etsy shop won the 2023 Etsy Design Awards Category Winner and we can see why. These pet portraits are so unique and adorable. We’re sure there’s someone in your life (if not you), that has a furry friend they consider more important than anything. This would be a perfect present for them!

Kivilcim also has plenty of other handmade goodies in her shop – home decor, candles, gorgeous earrings, incense holders, and holiday-themed items. We’re sure you’ll find something that’s truly one-of-a-kind.
