Kogei X-Mas Market of Manufactures

Christmas market in Berlin from 12 to 14 December 2025

The Kōgei X-Mas Market of Manufactories is more than just a Christmas market - it is a silent homage to genuine craftsmanship, lived passion and timeless aesthetics. In the Kōgei showroom on Potsdamer Straße, a space of tranquillity and beauty inspired by Japanese and German craftsmanship will be created this Advent weekend.

In the midst of the pre-Christmas hustle and bustle, the Kōgei X-Mas Market invites you to pause for a moment. Visitors can watch the artists at work, talk to them and discover extraordinary pieces - from hand-forged knives and Kintsugi ceramics to fine silver jewellery and delicate paper works. Everything is handmade, everything is unique. The market celebrates the detail, the material and the care that goes into every piece of work.

The culinary delights are also special: in addition to wagashi - delicate Japanese sweets - selected specialities from Japan are on offer, combining indulgence and hospitality. If you are looking for a meaningful, aesthetic gift or simply want to experience beauty, this is the place for you.
