Reviews

A beautiful store filled with lovely things. I bought two ornaments and I had a difficult time choosing which to get because each was so wonderful and intricate. The store owner was so nice and packed my items carefully. My friend and I had a wonderful conversation with him and both of us plan to stop here any time…
