Gattle's in Montgomery is a very Hyde Park-esque store, so it came as no surprise when I found out its original Cincinnati location was indeed in Hyde Park. Since 1904, Gattle's has been the home of "fine linens," and they also have locations in Naples, Fla. and Petoskey, Mich.
The Cooper Road store has fine bed, bath, and table linens, as well as women's sleepwear and an array of gift options. One of the main product lines I first noticed they have a lot from was MacKenzie-Childs, known for its tableware and home furnishings, while I also saw Sferra and Pine Cone Hill (luxury bedding and fine linens).
If you are looking to add some expensive, yet high quality items to your home, then Gattle's is the right store. They have place mats and many dining room set ups to choose from, towel sets, night gowns and robes, magnifying mirrors, fancy soaps, bedding and beds, and even a baby section filled with blankets, shoes, hats, sweaters, and bibs. I also saw a lot of monogrammed items, always great for gifts, and even dog purses (dog shaped, not actually for dogs), and handkerchiefs--yeah, handkerchiefs, because only upscale stores would actually sell those, right?
Although the prices are generally high, there are a lot of very fine products and they did happen to have a sale going on when I stopped in with my mother. It is a really nice store from one wall to the other, and it even smelled really good too. Definitely stop in if you are looking for nice linens, bedding, or dining room items, or just looking for a generous and impressive gift. read more
