Casa de Diego

Surprisingly little selection on shawls and hair accessories (accessories were flimsy plastic) and what they had was uninspiring. The staff really is SO OVER helping stupid tourists who can’t afford a €350ish short shawl. Really they can’t be bothered. Definitely a tourist premium on prices. I bought more elegant fans at the Thyssen gift shop for just a few more € than the plainest fans here. Umbrellas were good though.

Visited the store in October 25. Large choice but pricey. The staff is definitely unfriendly and can’t be bothered we bought 2 fans without any decent help from the young lady who never smiled or had any greeting words. English is not spoken which is surprising in a touristic area. She was only interested in the payment and turned her back when we left.

Amazing store! Cherry sold me several fans and she was so helpful and kind. All the fans are hand painted and unique. I'll definitely be coming back here next time I'm in Madrid!

*Added pictures from my June 2025 wedding 😍 Beautiful place where I got my bridal mantilla! Francisco and Natania were AMAZING and very helpful. I felt bad for coming so close to closing time, but it was worth the flight across the ocean as I left with a mantilla, castañas, and peinete. My mom also bought a mantilla for my wedding as well as they had various options. MUST VISIT if you're getting something unique for your special event.

Excellent dinner at Casa Diego Madrid. We were recommended the authentic Spanish food. Their fish plate Rodaballo (Turbot) was exquisite. The food was delicious and the service provided by Hernando was top notch. We will definitely be back soon.

This place is amazing! I bought a medium sized fan and a case, I love them both. My mom has a few fans which she bought here over 8 years ago and they are still good as new. The service was amazing. Cherry was especially patient and helped us pick out many fans. This place is definitely one you should visit.

Beautiful handwork and designs, emphasizes a luxurious addition to your style. The staff are very friendly and sweet. Thx to Francisco,Angeles and Erika

Located on the Puerta del Sol, stepping into Casa de Diego takes you back into time where strolling with a cane, umbrella, parasol or fan was commonplace. The selection is almost overwhelming, but the staff is friendly and there are a wide variety of price points. It was nice to see that they didn’t push the highest priced items first and highlighted the handcrafted/painted differences between each.

Casa de Diego is a very small shop on the Puerta Del Sol. I had heard it was overpriced, but checked it out anyways. I really wanted to find an authentic gift for my sister from Spain. I thought a hand painted fan would be something she'd like. And this was the place to go. I was pleasantly surprised by the price range. I bought two fans on the mid-high end, but I really like them. I skipped the specially designed stands because at 100€ a piece, I can't afford the stand to cost more than the fan. The service in the store was good. They were pleasant, but a little abrupt. It could have been the language barrier. So I won't really fault them. Other items including Paraguas (umbrellas) can be found here. Definitely worth at least a look in the Windows if only to admire the handiwork.

Great cultural experience. This shop is in the heart of Puerta De Sol and offers a look into the more traditional past of Spain. Hand painted fans adorn the walls and windows, and they are quite beautiful to look at. The range of prices was $24-$300. We bought one to take home as a gift for a relative.
