This heart-warming shop inhabits what was once an old-fashioned pharmacy, still replete with natural woodwork, porcelain knobs and sliding glass cabinetry. Items are arranged according to gift ideas—a display of tea-related objects, for example, encompasses everything from cups and coasters to jars of honey, while cocktail supplies and baby gifts are nearby. Local artisans are well-represented, with hand-pulled candles by Tatine, jewelry made of vintage and glass material by Leaves of Glass and stone and crystal bracelets and necklaces by Deana Rose all occupying shelf-space. Unique lines also include Apivita’s Greek bath and beauty products and luxurious purses by Tano.
