About the shop

A shop that is mostly shelves.

Two of us choose everything. We buy a few of each thing, from people we have met, and we use most of it at home first.

When something sells out it is often gone for good, because the maker only made twelve. We think that is part of the point.

The shelves are better in person.

Open Tuesday to Saturday, ten till five, and Sundays in December. Gift wrapping while you wait, and a bench outside for whoever is waiting for you.

Stuck for a present?

Tell us who it is for. We choose, wrap and post it.

A sentence about them and a budget is enough. We pick two or three things, send you a photograph, and wrap the one you choose with a handwritten card.
