How a gift leaves the house

The wine gets drunk. The gift card gets spent. These stay on a shelf for the next forty years.

Nearly everything here came home along the Pike, the old road between Bryn Mawr and Adamstown, Pennsylvania, where we do our buying. Most of it is one of a kind because of how it was made: painted by hand, cast in a small run, or kept in somebody's house for fifty years before it reached us.

Each order is wrapped by hand in paper and ribbon. Add a note at checkout and we'll write it on the card. The packing slip never shows a price.

Shipping is free anywhere in the U.S. by UPS Ground. Order by December 14 for Christmas. Holiday orders can be returned through January 15.
