If you are looking for any collectible, chances are you can find it here. Figurines, Vera Bradley, jewelry, books, they have it all. They have a lot of Baltimore themed goodies – Natty Boh, Orioles and Ravens gear abounds. They have beautiful stationary too if you still like to send letters and the selection of thank you’s and invitations is wonderful.
Thanks for the write up. Our selection is always evolving. We talk to different vendors and travel to industry tradeshows to find the best gift ideas and fashion lines. Since your review, we've added lots of local artwork, as well as fashion by Tommy Bahama, Simply Southern, Salt Life, and more.
