I have bought towels, India comforters, throw pillows, glasses, dishes, wall calendars, fake plants, a dining set, table lamp and many other items. Always authentic, many items look hand made.

Christian is a true gem to your store - he helped me create my account and get a 15% off discount but also took genuine concern in me as a person which is exceptionally rare in customer service in San Diego. I hope he is promoted to General Manager one day - his level of quality consider and service is not only commendable but should be rewarded. I will be back and tell all I know to ask for him!

Staff slammed but extremely helpful, went and got my pickup order even though I hadn't gotten the ready notification. I'm obsessed with their fabulous mid century modern light up Christmas houses, they had a few left that didn't show up online - snagged another one at 50% off!
