A Caseta is the colourful little marquee that each Sevillan family sets up and decorates to celebrate la Feria de Abril. Many families spend a small fortune on their Caseta and their friends and family every year; they have their own waitstaff, bar, catering dance floors and music. Traditionally they were for sealing deals on buying and selling stock but as the Feria has evolved into a social event they became more lively. In saying that, speaking to some Sevillanos whose Caseta I was invited to, said they still do quite a bit of business throughout the Feria inviting clients to their Casetas too. Seville’s Feria is known for being very prestigious as there are only a handful of public Casetas but if you go to the Ferias in Córdoba, Jerez and Malaga there are many public Casetas.
In Euros these necklaces are valued around 59/57EUR.
