Chemi Chemi (pronounced Chimi Chimi) is the kindest woman at this shop with so many treasures! By far, some of the most beautiful silver earrings I've seen.

Lots of beautiful polished crystals in various shapes, sage, sound bowls of various sizes, and everything you could think of. I'm very glad I stopped in here and I highly recommend. I'll definitely be back!

The…read moreprices are on the high side, but our daughter LOVES to go there. no public restroom in a toy store that is 1/4 devoted to toys for kids under 5. they direct you across the street to a coffee shop - seriously. Parking is ok and lots of other great shops near by. They have a habit of having low displays that contain choking hazards. I have mentioned it to the staff 3 times and every time we go in there are little plastic animals, marbles, or 3D printed stuff at the 2 year old mouth level. I spend the whole time making sure nothing goes in the kids mouth.

I was impressed by the way the owner made efforts to keep the gallery both safe and welcoming in a difficult time. He was also creative about sharing work and events online. I live in Oakland, so it isn't convenient to do much of my shopping there, but I do find it to be a treat to go in when I can. Some stores feel so full, it can be overwhelming and some are so spare, it is almost awkward, I am in and out. I find the store to be just right. It's relaxing to browse and there are enough things to see to keep you there for quite a while. The presentation is quite nice. Nearly everything in the store is handmade by a local artisan.
