I love love love this store, however the only thing that is keeping me from giving it 5 stars is one thing, well person (i'll come back to that later).
First off, I agree, this is the closest that we get to the MoMA Store in Baltimore, but there is so much more to this establishment.
The Store is broken into sections... there is a clothing section... very beautiful and a little out of my price range, a home wears section that has high-end, but also extremely affordable and beautiful items that are great gifts. There are also fun art books that live next to a little children's section. The "star" of the store is our local Jewelry Celeb, Betty Cooke's section (well actually she owns the whole store) that is devoted to her spectacular pieces. Do not go to tiffany and buy something boring... something that everyone else has... come here and treat yourself or a lucky friend to a beautiful pair of earrings, or a funky ring or any of her other pieces. I feel honored to own 2 pairs of her earrings and they are 2 of my favorite pieces.
Ok, so address the non-5 star rating. There is one employee who works at the store, who simply does not belong in this environment. She is judgmental, opinionated and I have even witnessed her yelling at her co-workers while I and other customers were in the store. It's funny, but if you read other reviews of the store, the same issue comes up as well... so I know I am not crazy.
Besides that little blip, this is a wonderful, locally owned establishment that all should frequent!! read more
