Beautiful Beautiful Shop!! The owner was so kind warm and welcoming. I highly recommend going here!! He has so many treasures from around the world !! I wanted to buy so much more when I was there but I had to tame my interests. it’s alot bigger than it looks from the outside. I actually lost my phone when I went in because I got overly excited so be careful 😂 One of the best I’ve been to in Rochester!!

We go there so much and theres always new stuff to find. I love owls and I found this in his shop. Those five white ones in front are carved mushrooms and they weigh next to nothing! I love them. It's a treasure trove for christmas gifts or birthday presents and theres literally everything. Vintage clothes/hats/scarves, china sets, toys, paintings, rugs, light fixtures, hutches/tables/shelves, glass, etc. And they're from all over too: Asia, Africa, middle eastern, etc. The aisles are very cramped and things are kind of stacked on top of each other, but it's kind of the charm of the place. It's always fun to stop in and take a look around. You'll, at the very least, find something interesting.

Awesome treasure chest!!! Don’t normally write reviews but someone wrote a one star and I had to shout out . The owner is amazing and he’s got the best most unique awesome fancy fun and funky finds . For instance, bought the most amazing chenille peacock bedspread, an awesome huge silver platter I’m giving as a gift and a neat cowboy hat and mens fedora hats as well as a beautiful Herand (sp?) tiny rabbit knickknack box.... beautiful crystal glassware and unique finds... why spend more... semi previously enjoyed aka all in great condition like new!!! Beware the store is packed like crazy so be careful when shopping .. quite a maze to get through .. but OMG the best shopping ever! And the owner is super fantastic friendly .. in the know.. great taste.. so glad we have this awesome store right on the east side !

I Just picked up a piece of furniture from here that the proprietor claimed was 18th century original and sold it as such. I checked the label on the couch in question and it stated established in 1927. This guy is a complete scammer and rip off artist. Never trust this shyster!
