We were pleased with the variety, price, and quality of the products available in this store. Particularly memorable were several very unique and beautiful local pieces of pottery, shown in the images. Finally, in terms of staff, the owner was friendly and helpful, and service efficient but not impersonal.

Staff and owner lack the customer service that is very important to sustain a successful business long term. We have been customers for some time and all is good until we had a defect in a product that was purchased. Attempted to address it... Left countless of messages and never received a return call. No luck with the phone listed for the shop either. Honestly, I dont know how these people run a business. The staff was condescending and above it all. I understand the challenges of running a retail store and you dont ever want to take customer service lightly. There is plenty of competition out there! Listen up. I will be spending my money elsewhere! Lost a valuable customer. Thank you very much!

Cool, unique place with beautiful handmade scarves, pottery, leather work and more! Walked in after getting coffee and the lady at the front was super inviting, sweet and full of information about the artists work in the shop. She made the store fun and welcoming for me and my husband.

Just left after standing in front of the store for quite a while. Sign clearly states they open at 10. Left there and took a walk. We went back twice. Someone came in, but still not opened. At 10:47 the sales person opened the door (hallelujah) stepped out, locked door and left. I finally googled the store and it said opens at 11. PLEASE fix your sign! We werent the only ones to notice they werent open when the sign says they should be. We had 11:30 reservations, so we left. Money was lost as we were all prepared to buy.

The shop owner banned someone from the store while I was here.. all for returning something that cost ten dollars. The kid had only bought the item that day so its not like he was actually losing profit... i dont know who can pay an artist that quickly. He whined about his profits and told the young man to never come here again. There are plenty of great shops downtown dont waste your patronage here.

Not sure who would buy anything. It seems like a tourist shop, but has very little local products. There are some low quality paintings, knee socks, kitchen gadgets, and other mismatched items here that just dont make sense together.
