Joyería Mayer is recognized as the oldest commercial business in Santiago de Compostela, dating back to eighteen thirty. The shop is noted for its specialization in azabache, a black gemstone known as jet, which has long been a characteristic craft of the city. While the business began when Gerhard Mayer arrived from Germany’s Black Forest to sell cuckoo clocks, subsequent generations shifted the focus toward working with silver and carving jet.
