We went up to pick up the ceramics we made a few weeks ago at a Yelp event…read more When we entered we could tell this is a place we can come for unique and thoughtful gifts, in the future. For those that can remember stores like Wanamaker's, or Sak's you'll know what I mean. This is an upscale enterprise that seems to become increasingly rare in today's market Judging from the displays and choices of quality merchandise, you can see the proprietor has extensive knowledge of merchandising and buying; on what will and will not sell to the target market. We found something for an oenophile we know; it's one of a kind and comes in a beautiful box. We will be back.

The studio is well equipped with clay (red and white), tools, and glazes. I have a shelf for on-going projects. It is spotlessly clean unlike so many dusty pottery studios.

My favorite part of the store is actually that it has AC and seating. The interior is rather fragrant (think strong ginger/ginseng aroma), so if you're sensitive to smell, you may not want to stay here long.
