Alfredo's Family Business

I went for a tour today of Alfredo's family business about 3 blocks away from where I am staying.

The family business is over 300 years old, passed down generation after generation by the grandfathers for the men in the family. Out of the 6 brothers, Alfredo runs the business with 2 others. The business will not be passed on after they pass on, as their kids want nothing to do with this industry in todays world.

For all this time, they have not moved and still continue to use many of the original tools!

It's a ceramic shop......from start to finish!

It's behind one of those doors that open up to amazing things you often see in Antigua.

So misleading those doors until you look inside!

The place was huge! With a great courtyard in the middle.

6 families also live there- each in their own part of the "compound" as I would like to call it.

Simply amazing!
