What a serendipitous discovery! This is an utterly charming gallery where a diverse spectrum of artists working in all sorts of media can be found. We truly enjoyed chatting with the congenial and erudite owner Claus and I ended up buying a mixed media painting (oil, bronze and ink) by Bettina Charlotte Radatz, whose works I have previously seen on the Saatchi website. Claus allows you to browse at your own pace while ready to offer suggestions if you should need them. From the range on offer, there is clearly something for every aesthetic taste or inclination, so head down there for a pleasant afternoon and you might soon find something for your wall or display shell. And supporting artists is infinitely better that wasting money on tacky, kitschy, mass manufactured tourist souvenirs. So pleased I added another talented artist to my international collection of over 450 paintings!

We really enjoyed this visit. There is such a wide range of art, much of it from African artists (the owners used to live in South Africa). The owner was really interesting to talk to and we found this our favourite of all the art outlets we saw in Funchal.

A nice little shop within a place with several little art galleries. Friendly people. No further text but TripAdvisor needs at least 100 letters

Such a really great place to visit!

I fell in love with an piece by Robert Biloiu titled 'Hinterhoff', despite it already being bought by the gallery owner himself he kindly sold it to me!

I can't remember the name of the wonderfully passionate chap who ran the gallery but I am forever grateful for him selling this piece to me!

I LOVE Maderia, such a wonderful place to visit!

We visited Restock while in Funchal for the day on a cruise. Each booth here has a wide variety of pieces from local artisans as well as African! The owner, Claus, lived for many years in South Africa and brings this vibrant and wonderful artwork to his gallery. We loved being able to enjoy the booths at our leisure without crowds of tourists, and find our perfect souvenirs. Claus gave us great information and was a pleasure to chat with. Our experience at Restock was one of the highlights of our day.

I was surprised to find this interesting collection of art just around the corner from the farmer's market. Loved the variety of artworks and the atmosphere of the place.

We loved spending time at this great gallery space that's located just outside the city centre. The gallery is divided up into smaller spaces surrounding a courtyard area. With a large, beautiful selection of South African and Portuguese art, the latter mostly by local Madeiran artists, there's something for everyone: from small budget pieces to large artworks. The gallery's owners are very friendly and organise shipping direct to your front door!

This gallery has a very interesting background. The owners are a German/American couple who have run galleries in South Africa and also in Berlin. Because of their ties to South Africa, they have a good selection of comtemporary African art (and lots of other high quality artworks)
The gallery is located in an interesting building with several other activities going on. It's just behind the big fruit market, so make sure you visit this gallery after you enjoyed looking at all the colourful fruits and flowers. They also offer different workshops, and when I visisted them, I was met by a very charming female painter who introduced me to the gallery and showed me her own work in action.
Lots of colours!
For anyone interested in bringing something special back home, they have lots of small artworks and crafts which easily fit into your bag.
