Local News Coverage On Our Store

The Brentwood Press came by last week and wrote up a nice article about our store.  It's been great growing our online business to over 35,000 customers.  Now we're able to really service the local community and we're thrilled that people are coming from "Over the Hill" in Concord, Walnut Creek, Alamo, etc to shop with us. Thanks to everyone for all the great local support!

Have you seen our new alpaca scarf collection?

We went nuts buying scarves this year while down in Lima, Peru visiting with our suppliers.  The style, color and quality of our new alpaca scarves is the best yet.  The baby alpaca is buttery soft and the finishing and colors are out of this world.  We also made sure the edges are all hand finished unlike nearly all scarves coming out of Peru these days.  This will ensure you have a scarve that will last for years.  These scarves make a great gift since there are no sizing issues and the quality is so exceptional.  If you end up buying some for yourself or others, please let us know what you think!
