Etsy is a marketplace for creatives, for people with artist inclinations who love to turn the abstractions of our world into material.
In a world where it is quite easy to dismiss art as a patime for the unserious ones by popular opinion, there are actually a number of people who appreciate the intelligence and beauty surrounding art pieces and are even willing to pay handsomely for pieces of art that appeals to them.
By Wikipedia definition 'Etsy is an e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items and craft supplies. These items fall under a wide range of categories, including jewelry, bags, clothing, home décor and furniture, toys, art, as well as craft supplies and tools. All vintage items must be at least 20 years old.'
