When I'm back in that neck of the woods I'm definitely going to visit The Coop again!

It was wonderful; I bought two huge leather rocker-swivel chairs that are in my bedroom still, quite expensive, and love them. I bought an Ikea chair that I used in my AirBNB bedroom and it was perfect. I bought a mirror that's still in my hallway. There were ladies managing the desk and they were always busy doing intake, answering shoppers' questions, checking in on you when you walked in. Things were moving fast, it was all organized -- busy, and organized -- and everything was well-kept and high-end. They moved downtown, the man said, leaning back in his recliner chair, four years ago. It is not what it used to be. I'll leave it there. I'm sad. Most of the wonderful reviews you read here are from the time before the move.

One challenge is finding one that has the right mix of "treasures". Antique shops that have a lot of dishes, glassware, and sterling silver utensils don't interest me.

It's like an onion as there are many layers to places like this. And it will be a new onion the next time I visit. It was fun to look around this nicely curated shop: up, down, across, and under. I ended up with a small specialty vintage Soviet "knife" for the collection. Not a bad haul for such a too short visit.

It is part of the adjacent Ignition Galley and I'm looking forward to visiting both when Nina and I are in Ashland this summer. The rugs they carry are from Silk Road Trading Company and the lamps and other objects are from all over the world. What I could see on their website was intriguing and attractive and I'm looking forward to admiring it up close. They are closed Mondays and open 11-6 Tuesday to Saturday and 12-5 Sundays. This is a mall Nina and I used to visit regularly to shop, but once the store that was our primary draw closed we rarely went there. Sounds like we're going to have to remedy that.

And, again pleasantly surprised, there was another store I have not spotted from the car. Between the coffee place and the shop on the corner is another store, I think, is an absolute must when visiting this part of town. For those who visit this might be a little 'off the beaten track.' Most people might go straight to Main Street and end up on "The Plaza,' but there's more to charming Ashland. I have a feeling one should almost be 'in the know' to end up on 4th street. Hence the face I'll review a few stores on this street. Being half Asian (Balinese to be precise) I was delighted to see 'Old World Artifacts, a name fitting to this store. It's like stepping into a different world, different south East Asian cultures combined with local art. Should you be in the area, I can highly recommend you to pay this store a visit. The owner, Franklin, is friendly and welcoming. No snobbish attitude I have often found in similar stores. Instead a man who loves to talk about his favorite places to visit and makes you feel at ease. My photographs will -hopefully- give an impression of the inventory of "Old World Artifacts." There's a plethora of artifacts from different Asian cultures. It feels like so much has been hand selected by Franklin on his travels. I heard him about Cambodia where he rode the bicycle; drop by to chat with this well-traveled man if you're interested in traveling to that part of the world and see what the culture has to offer. Not only Asian artifacts are for sale. When I walked in my eye instantly caught incredible art on the wall. It turns out thus is from local artist, Kat McIver. There's something deeply touching about her sculptures, they're all very different and I have added some pictures. I was told this artist works one day a week in this store. I saw big Buddha statues with a hefty price tag, which is totally justifiable and understandable knowing where it comes from. Having said that, I also saw rugs from turkey at a really great price for a good quality Turkish rug ($195 for a real Turkish rug is a steal). Being half Asian, half Dutch I'm aware of the prices of these rugs and I paid a lot more when living back home in Amsterdam. A set of locally made cards of $4. In other words: there's something for every budget. That's something I think is -especially in these times- a good thing. This store has only been open since October last year, so not too long. I will definitely be back on a regular base.
