Description

There's nothing in this store you really need, but there's tons of stuff you won't be able to live without. Hundreds of handcrafted items, created mostly by Canadian artists, fill the space, located just east of Yonge at Jarvis and King. The pieces can be fanciful or functional, and are often both. Absolutely unique furniture and glassware share space with jewellery, sculptures, oil paintings and unique wooden cityscape renderings by Ontario artist Jennifer Stenberg. The hardwood floors and exposed ceiling give the store the feel of an artist's loft.
