I decided to stop in today for a quick peek, well an hour later I hated to leave. What a beautiful store and absolutely beautiful art, reasonably priced. The Lady I spoke to was one of the nicest business ladies ever. Unfortunately I am due to leave for home soon,but will be going back in a few days to shop some more. I wish her success. Highly recommend this beautiful store to anyone. Thank you for welcoming me and I am spreading the word for all to see...
