I used to frequent their Laurel Village location and really miss it! Terrestra is my go-to shop for unique, high-quality gifts. Support local businesses instead of Big Tech! read more

Here's an unedited correspondence I had with Terrestra: Hi! My husband, XXXX, bought some Jars Torron cereal bowls for me in 2020 (ORDER #199685). I've noticed that the glaze on two of them is breaking down, exposing the raw ceramic underneath--I can provide pictures. I tried emailing Jars directly but received no response. Do you or they offer some sort of guarantee on the product? I am thinking the bowls are not safe to eat from anymore. Thanks! Cristina Hi Cristina, We are very sorry to hear about the glaze issue. We have sold thousands of Jars bowls and plates over 20 years and have not heard similar reports. There may be an unusually harsh combination of dishwasher chemicals and hard water, I cannot say. If this had happened in the first year of use we certainly would alert Jars and they might issue a replacement, but unfortunately after five years there is really nothing we can do. Best regards, Ray Terrestra.com Hello Ray, I understand that the bowls are not new but I would appreciate that you share the images with Jar--the deterioration of the glaze is occurring in all three of the bowls that I have in "Jade" but the ones I have in "Neige" show no signs of deterioration. This indicates to me that there is a difference in the glaze and it is not a problem or fluke on my end. I do use these bowls a lot but there is no indication that they are not for everyday use. It is disappointing because they are not cheap. Thank you, Cristina And then....nothing. I waited 10 days or so and sent another follow-up email. And again, nothing. read more

Terrestra - Home Decor Near Me - Fair Oaks, California

I ordered a wallet online from them. They sent me the wrong wallet. That would've been fine, but they refused to send the correct wallet until they received the wrong wallet. Rude. read more

I am so pleased we have something NEW and VIBRANT in our little Fair Oaks Village. I discovered this shop from a friend who knows the owners and got a sneak peek last December. Since then, I've had the pleasure of purchasing Christmas gifts, birthday gifts, client gifts, and a few things for myself, including one-of-a-kind earrings that captured quite a bit of attention my first time wearing them. The owners are simply marvelous: kind, soft spoken, caring, thoughtful people who have curated a store that's a blend of wonderful items from regional and global artisans. I highly recommend visiting the shop...but make sure you have some time to peruse. Everything is special and with such a variety of textures and colors, you will want to take it all in. #happycustomer read more

I bought a wallet here and told the woman I didn't know if it would fit all my stuff. Even showed her my current wallet. She said don't worry you have 30 days to return it. So I bought it. Turns out it didn't fit all of my stuff so I took it back. Well, the women didn't say you have 30 days to return it for store credit. She just said you can return it. I'm so furious and after I use my store credit, which I wasn't told about, I won't shop at this overpriced store again. read more

Beautiful light open store, glass & wood inlay coasters, blown glass vases, Japanese handcrafted woodwork jewelry boxes, soft leather purses & wallets, every piece feels like it was crafted with beauty in mind and by an artists hand. The lady working welcomed us and let us roam to admire all of the many things in the store. Next time I am looking for a show piece, a vase, or a nice gift I will be sure to come back here... I will probably come back on occasion to browse the jewelry. read more

This was a spectacular local business to register at. I was first hooked by their wonderful provençal plates, and my fiancé was quickly convinced once he took a look at the beautiful japanese sake glasses, several of which he insisted on buying *before* the wedding. They really have fantastic taste, so you can't go wrong, and your registry is personally managed by the owner, so you are very well taken care of here. The prices I think are reasonable for the excellent quality, and best of all, they have great items that I have not found at any other store. Five Stars!! read more

Love me some retail therapy! Thanks, TERRESTRA! Gorgeous, serene, helpful. Could spend days there and never tire of the beautiful merchandise and artistic, classy atmosphere. Love it. It's worth driving long distances to this destination. I go there for gifts and never fail to also come away with something for me. read more

Some items are a bit pricey while others are more affordable and costs are comparable to similar items at Target or other large chains but better quality. Everything in the store is beautiful. There are wood pieces, glass, jewelry, bags and various artwork. Very friendly staff. read more

This is a nice store with great expensive gifts. Beware though, if you need to return something, it is store credit only! So then, you must buy something else you might not really need or want so that is a problem. Especially if you go there to buy something particular and then need to make the return, you are out of luck getting your money back. There is a sign saying no refunds but it is very hard to see and not right in front of you when you are checking out. And the person there does not tell you no refunds, just a credit for the store. I did not even have the product for 24 hours, and I tried to do the return and experienced all this. Just FYI. read more

This is a fantastic little shop. You know how a lot of artsy stores that carry pottery, local jewelry and other crafts have that funky hippie feel? Not so here. It's a modern and warm shop that carries some really great pottery pieces, vases to dinnerware. The colors are amazing ranging from zen to eye catching. Heath is one of my favorite lines of stoneware out there. Such lovely and elegant shapes with that touch of rustic to it. Besides tableware they also carry jewelry, some leather goods, hand painted silk scarves and glassware. I'm looking forward to many little trips here for gifts. read more

So, snubbing is still snubbing, whether it's obvious or done subtly. Get that? Good. This review is for the caucasian/white saleswoman who was there with an Asian saleswoman when I came into your shop for the first time last week after my doctor's appointment at CPMC. I don't care if you have lots of "regular" house-wife types who come into your store all the time. You WILL treat me with that same warmth, respect and candor or you can expect I'll be telling more of my friends exactly how poorly I felt I was treated by you. You were condescending and altogether non-welcoming AFTER I witnessed you kowtowing to said housewife. I won't be back. I will, instead, be telling people to buy the unimaginative, over-priced items you had in this shop ONLINE INSTEAD. read more

This place is awesome, and the place to go if you are looking for a really nice housewarming present, or classy gift for someone in your life who likes unique housewares, mostly for kitchen and dining. They've got a wide variety of styles, mostly from California artists/craftsmen. It's hard to imagine you wouldn't be able to find something for someone special in your life, and while many things are pricy, they've got plenty of well priced items in here. The staff is really nice and low pressure, which is good because I often feel pressured to buy in small shops where you are always in sight of the owners. The woman at the counter did show me a few different things that I had missed, which I appreciated. She also made sure to show me some things below 20 dollars, which I thought was nice because I might have felt awkward asking for something cheaper in a more upscale shop like this. Things I saw at Terrestra: a gorgeous range of cloth napkins and unique rings handmade wooden jewelry boxes of different designs colorful teapots and cup sets lovely cutting and cheese boards (many in olive wood) pretty ice cream scoops I ended up buying a tea infuser set in olive wood that had it's own stand (45 dollars). The woman at the counter gift wrapped it for me for my grandmother, and did a lovely job. Would definitely seek this place out again next time I need a gift for my foodie family, even though I don't live close to here. read more

This might be the best-curated shop for housewares and gifts in San Francisco. It is my first stop for every anniversary, every birthday, every Father's Day for my husband and housewarming for friends: most of us are cooks, and all of us appreciate good design. Every single item here is both lovely and thoughtfully designed. Their buyers must be amazing. Each separate collection of housewares and accessories is individually special, yet they all flow together beautifully. New additions (like the Simon Pearce line) fit perfectly with store standards (like the beautiful leather goods along the back walls). And they're often things you just can't find anywhere else. We love, and are still using, all of our Terrestra items. They're designed to last for many years, and they do. Our Simon Pearce glass bowl and Heath covered casserole are in constant use, as is the wine aerator I gave my husband for the "steel" anniversary (11 years!). My Mom still wears her painted-silk scarf and African seed-bead necklaces. I am so grateful that all of this beauty is within walking distance. Come to Terrestra when you know you're ready to buy. You probably won't need to go anywhere else -- I never do. It's a small place, but all the good stuff is here. read more

This may be the most wonderful store in the world. If you are looking for high quality, beautify designed "things," that can be expensive or reasonable (both), this is the place. You could just spend time in this store. read more

Items mispriced in store and cheaper online. Store does not accept returns. Buy your overpriced wallets and picture frames somewhere else.

If I could afford it, I would buy everything in this store. Fabulous serving platters and dinnerware. I want it all! I don't even like salad, but I want all their fabulous wood salad bowls. Everything is contemporary chic, but also very elegant and rustic. How can that be? Great little store for housewarming gifts. read more

I didn't buy anything but I liked seeing that they sold Chilewich placemats and other assorted yet modern dinner and tableware.

Whenever I'm in Mill Valley, I stop in here. A great place for quality gifts, pottery, glassware, vases--every kind of artisan product--too many to name. I tend to do most of my holiday shopping here. read more

Every time I go to Terrestra I see another layer of wonderful things-- even though it feels open and uncluttered, there's too much to take in on a first pass. And although there are some "investment" pieces, there's tons of great stuff at value pricing. It's obviously a wonderful place for gifts, but it has also been a great place for us to get those few favorite pieces we needed to class-up our otherwise craigslist collection. read more

An amazing little shop with a fabulous collection of gorgeous contemporary (many local and many also Danish/Swedish) pieces ranging from colorful leather wallets/purses/iPad cases, to beautiful crystal, fantastic wood and stainless steel accessories including wine and tea accessories and everything you could want for your table. I stumbled into it by accident and spent over an hour there, walking out with some beautiful things. The owner (she and her husband doing all the buying) has impeccable taste. She couldn't have been more helpful and I will most definitely be back....beautiful, beautiful things....I could have spent many hundreds of dollars more.... read more

Overpriced and limited selection. Staff is pretentious. Most items are available in other shops at lesser prices. Don't waste your time and money. read more
