About Us

Celebrating the handmade since 1986, Crackerjack Contemporary Crafts is a Seattle-based online store committed to supporting American Crafts Artists.

Originally a retail shop located in Wallingford Center, in Seattle’s Wallingford neighborhood, Crackerjack closed its doors in January 2020 to exist exclusively online. Offering shipping, local delivery and curbside pickup at the warehouse in Shoreline, Crackerjack Contemporary Crafts continues its tradition of excellence!

Celebrating the handmade since 1986, Crackerjack Contemporary Crafts is a Seattle based shop committed to supporting American Crafts Artists. Our original offerings are carefully chosen to reflect the person behind the work, thus endowing each piece with integrity and uniqueness. We strive to represent a variety of artists working in a range of mediums including gems, glass, ceramics, paper and pewter. Crackerjack was, in fact, the first to collect such a diversity of media under one roof.
Niche Magazine recognized Crackerjack in their 100 Top Craft Retailers of the Year and we’ve joined the group chosen to be included in Seattle’s Best Places. We are pleased that we’ve been able to bring the talent and imagination of over 200 local, regional and national artists to our customers. Recently, we’ve added work from France, Belgium, and Canada, continuing to seek hand-crafted items with a distinct voice.
We believe a reciprocal relationship exists between the artist and the art lover in that each is uplifted through enjoyment of the creative process. By bringing more beauty to functional items, we strive to enrich lives and extol the creative spirit in all of us.
