This store serves as a showcase for more than 80 artists and craftspeople in the area. Stained-glass mosaics, lace handwork, fine miniature-furnishing collectibles, silk paintings, frames, and prints are just a few of the things that you will find here. The 1928 building that houses the emporium is a reason to visit in its own right; it is an architectural landmark designed in neoclassical style. Hours are Monday to Thursday 11am to 6pm and Friday and Saturday 11am to 7pm. Between summer and Christmas, it is also open on Sunday from noon to 5pm.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
