| What exactly is the "Emporium"?... officially we're a shop specializing in American contemporary crafts and unique gifts .... wonderful stuff: pottery, jewelry, windchimes, blown, stained and etched glass, lithophanes, handmade soap, candles, Celtic jewelry, etc... but I also hope we're a good experience and a pleasant memory- relaxing music, soft scents, and beautiful things all around. |
