Mazzola Jewellery & Gallery is located in the former bakery of Featherston, a small town at the foot of the Remutaka range in the Wairarapa. It is open every Saturday afternoon. Eftpos available.
The gallery is named after the Mazzola family who migrated from Massa Lubrense, near Naples, Italy, to Wellington, New Zealand in the early twentieth century.
Mazzola Jewellery & Gallery was established in 2004 on Plimmers Steps, Wellington.
The gallery relocated to the former bakery for Featherston which opened in 1918 and was run by Mr Towersley until the 1950s. The bread was baked in what is now the gallery, and sold in what is the small hut on the property which originally was sited on the corner of the intersection.
The entrance to the gallery is on Boundary Road
Within the gallery you will find a range of hand-made creative jewellery which sits within what was once the oven for the bakery.
You will also find a selection of art in the main area of the gallery, with occasional shorter term exhibitions.
Also part of the family at Mazzola Jewellery & Gallery are some goats, chickens and ducks
