14. Personal
Jeweller’s shop located in an establishment where the medieval origins and Gothic elements of the space remain clearly visible.
Personal is proof that tastefully combining modernity and tradition is not only possible, but also a safe bet for business. Upon entering the establishment we are welcomed by an exhibition of jewellery of exquisite designs, presented in perfect harmony with the building’s medieval and modern legacy. The owner wanted to give the building’s architectural heritage a central role in their business and make it an active part of the design and presentation of their products, and it’s clear that they have been successful in this endeavour. Don’t miss the opportunity to visit Personal to admire their designs and their unique setting.
The store occupies the ground floor of Carrer Major, 32.
Personal’s premises consist of two adjacent spaces within the same building, which were formerly independent. The space through which we enter the building greets us with two lowered pointed arches: one on the right-hand wall and one at the other end of the shop. The latter gives way to the shop’s storeroom, where you can see the structures of an old courtyard, now built upon. Specifically, a medieval low balcony with carved coats of arms stands out in the old courtyard space. The roof of the main part of the shop is also of interest, as it features a unique wooden coffered ceiling held by a semicircular arch in the centre of the room.
The second space in the shop is adorned with segmental arches and a Catalan vaulted ceiling. The room is closed on its eastern end with an 18th century flat archway. The dividing wall between the two main spaces of the shop seems to date back to the late Middle Ages or Early Modern era.
