<p>You're not just here to find gems with a past. It is also a place of meeting and inspiration for people committed to a sustainable and circular Breda. The shop is furnished with reclaimed materials and you can borrow 'rental boxes' with, for example, tools or items for a children's party. In the exchange cabinet, you'll find books and plant cuttings. This way, less new production is needed and you'll save money. Nice, isn't it!</p>

Parels is a circular thrift store, the 'treasure chamber' of Kringloopwarenhuis Vindingrijk, and a place where active work is being done towards a world without waste.

In this workshop ‘make your house number unique with mosaic’ you will create a mosaic from old ceramics.
