My favorite store in gastown. I often find beautiful gifts there, as well as lovely socks, books, and bags for myself. Everything is so thoughtfully and carefully handpicked by the owner. It’s one of those special shops where there’s always something unique and wonderful to discover.

I purchased an item that was shipped to Australia. Whole process was smooth and stress free. Staff were helpful and were quick to respond to my enquiry regarding the item. Thank you.

What a lovely little shop! We wandered in after having a look through the window, and I’m so glad we did :)
Inside you’ll find a variety of curated items from dish ware to blankets to books, and don’t miss the clothing downstairs. I found the perfect oversized brown coat for 50% off in their winter sale!
