About Portiera

Portiera's Purpose:

  • Have fun with art.
  • Support starving artists.
  • Promote North American fine craft.
  • Showcase amazing pieces you'll treasure forever.
  • Make customers smile or laugh out loud.
  • Think outside the big box.
  • Provide natural, handcrafted, lead-free alternatives.
  • Help everyone find that perfect gift.
  • Keep our employees off the streets.
  • Make your visit to Breckenridge memorable.

Since the first Portiera fine craft gallery opened in 1998, we have specialized in making artwork accessible. Why fill your home with manufactured junk? Let us help you find truly unique pieces made by real human beings for real life. Shop outside the mall! See how affordable it is to own cool stuff that's the envy of your friends.

We present artwork in many media including art glass, jewelry, ceramics, glassware, woodworking, forged metal, photography, paintings and sculpture. Over the years, we've gotten to know the artists personally, and when they're not driving us crazy they find time to create some pretty exciting things! Check out our featured artists on this website for a sample of their work. 

Portiera Designs Gallery is whimsical and fun--sure to put a smile on your face. Come visit us on your next trip to Breckenridge, CO.  If you can't come see what makes us so special in person, you can shop with us from home on this website with full confidence, knowing that a real store and years of experience stand behind your purchase via the web or by phone. Just promise not to go postal!

The Colorado gallery is located in the quaint historic mining town of Breckenridge, famous for it's world-class ski resort. We're on the "main drag" in Breck, across from The Whale's Tail restaurant.
