Owner Grace Tsao-Wu calls the tabletop wares at her boutique "jewelry for the entertainer." Whether you're the host or hostess with the mostest or are just shopping for a gift for one, this elegant shop will surely please with its stock of unusual glass and ceramic pieces by artisans from here and abroad. An Italian mosaic dining table will put you back three grand, but many other items, at $50 to $150, fall into the right range for wedding or housewarming gifts.
In late 2007, the shop doubled its space with the addition of a wedding registry studio, where couples to be can work with a wedding stylist to design and register for their own combination of plates and glassware (china is making a comeback, people!). The same stylist will also guide wedding guests when them come in to choose a gift off your registry.
