Really nice items, priced appropriately. Still expensive, but not as bad as the tourist trap type placement in bigger cities. Good selection of items created by local artists. Unique items - worth the stop!

This is one of the most unique gift shops I’ve ever visited. I really appreciate that they sell locally made handcrafted items and establish relationships with the artists. The son of the owners is very knowledgeable and has information on every piece sold in the shop.
