Friendly and kind staff that made my buying experience enjoyable. The gallery is loaded with all kinds of great local art and artisan wares. I was on a mission to acquire some new functional industrial utilitarian pieces and I found them here. Two beautiful lamps, each unique one of a kinds, both functional and quality fired pottery lamps at a great value and fair price. Walking through the gallery, its a large space and there is great art everywhere you look or turn. I found the first piece almost immediately but it took a good bit of perusing and searching to find the second. After my initial walk through I made a second pass and found the next acquisition. Another beautiful lamp, ceramic obvious artisan made and it fit my idea near perfect. After finding my second piece I headed to the register. The staff wrapped and packed both pieces while I checked out. It was a great treat stumbling across Piedmont Craftsman. Well worth a stop and visit, and your support. A lot of amazing art and artisan wares at a wide range of prices, to fit most budgets. 4.5 Stars rounded up for the great staff and selection of art. 01107
