Best of Boston
1999 Best Bridal Registry, Alternative

Forget your grandmother’s china pattern. The selection of hand-blown glass bowls and glasses, hand-painted plates from artists and potters from around the world, knickknacks, and curios is more about divine decadence than restraint. Mix-and-match patterns and styles update traditional heirloom china and blend the conventional with the unusual at this eclectic store.
